As I predicted a few months back, the ADC market prospect is absolutely exploding. (Abbvie - Immunogen deal, https://lnkd.in/edyG2hW5), as triple acquisitions have been annouced in one morning today: First, J&J - Ambrx Second, Merck-Harpoon Third, Novartis-Calypso. The trio of acquisitions follows a deal-heavy December as the industry expects Big Pharma to start spending its trove of cash to shore up its pipelines as end-of-decade patent expirations loom. Besides, Merck, Bristol Myers, Roche, BioNTech and others have inked multiple licensing and collaboration deals to nab rights to ADCs.

CG Oncology is hoping for a $209m IPO, with more biotechs looking to hit public markets this year. Bladder cancer-focused CG started 2024 by outlining IPO plans, but no figures were offered at the time. Now, the biotech has said it is looking to sell 11.8 million shares at $16-18 a piece, bringing the total IPO value to around $181.1million. If the underwriters jump at the opportunity to snap up a further 1.7m shares, then the haul would rise to $209million. Will we be seeing a bolder year for bitoech in 2024? #biotech #pharma #mergersandacquisitions

This is exciting news from the biotech IPO market! Following CG Oncology's successful debut on Nasdaq, ArriVent BioPharma has now entered the spotlight with its own upsized offering. ArriVent's business model, focused on in-licensing clinical stage assets from emerging biotech hubs and bringing them to the US market, signals a promising trend in the industry. While ArriVent's offering landed within its expected range, the company sold 9.7 million shares, surpassing its initial plan and raising gross proceeds of $175 million, exceeding expectations. With the potential for even more growth if underwriters exercise their option, ArriVent's journey on the Nasdaq, under the ticker "AVBP," promises to be an exciting one. CG Oncology's recent success adds to the anticipation, as the biotech market shows signs of opening up in 2024. Other biotechs like Alto Neuroscience, Metagenomi, and Kyverna Therapeutics poised are poised to join what could be a biotech IPO wave this year. #BiotechIPO #ArriVentBioPharma #InLicensing #Nasdaq #EmergingBiotech ArriVent takes in $175M from second biotech IPO of the year
