The movement follows an announcement on March 23 that the initial human Phase I clinical trial results for HBM9378 have been published online in the peer-reviewed journal Drug Design, Development and Therapy. The favorable safety profile and extended half-life observed in the study support further evaluation of the therapy for severe immune diseases.

In January 2025, HBM HOLDINGS-B and SKB BIO-B entered into a strategic collaboration with Windward Bio, granting the latter exclusive rights to research, develop, manufacture, and commercialize the antibody globally, excluding Greater China and certain Southeast and West Asian countries.
