Gilead Buying Another Cancer-Drug Partner -- Market Talk

Dow Jones04-07

1023 ET - Gilead Sciences is buying out another cancer-drug partner with its deal to pay up to $5 billion for Tubulis. Gilead in February said it would buy the rest of Arcellx, its partner in developing a potential CAR T-cell therapy for the blood cancer multiple myeloma, in a deal valuing the biotech company at about $7.8 billion at closing. Analysts at RBC Capital Markets say the Tubulis acquisition represents a strategically sound bolt-on that addresses Gilead's oncology pipeline growth needs while securing differentiated next-generation antibody-drug conjugate platform capabilities.
