\nBispecific antibody directed towards an undisclosed Takeda immuno-oncology target uses F-star\u2019s proprietary Fcab\u2122<\/sup> and mAb2\u2122<\/sup> platforms<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–InvoX Pharma Limited (\u201cinvoX\u201d), <\/b>a U.K.-based wholly-owned subsidiary of Sino Biopharmaceutical Limited (\u201cSino Biopharm\u201d) (HKEX 1177 HK) with an advancing pipeline of innovative products, today announces that F-star, an invoX company, has entered into a second licence agreement with Takeda for a novel next-generation immuno-oncology bispecific antibody.\n<\/p>\n

\nUnder the terms of the licence agreement, F-star will grant Takeda a worldwide, exclusive royalty-bearing licence to research, develop, and commercialize a bispecific antibody directed towards an undisclosed immuno-oncology target using F-star\u2019s proprietary Fcab\u2122<\/sup> and mAb2<\/sup> \u2122<\/sup> platforms. Takeda will be responsible for all research, development and commercialisation activities under the agreement. F-star will receive an undisclosed upfront licence fee and is eligible to receive potential future development and commercialization milestone payments, plus royalties on annual net sales.\n<\/p>\n

\nThis licence agreement represents the second option that Takeda has exercised under an evaluation and licence agreement with F-star that was entered into in July 2021. F-star and Takeda entered into a licence agreement for a different bispecific antibody in July 2022.\n<\/p>\n

\nNeil Brewis, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of F-star said: \u201cThis second licence agreement with Takeda provides further validation of the enormous potential of F-star\u2019s mAb2<\/sup><\/i>\u2122<\/i> <\/i><\/sup>platform to produce multiple next-generation bispecific antibody therapeutics. We look forward to our continued partnership with Takeda who share our vision of developing pioneering bispecifics in immunotherapy so more people with cancer can live longer and improved lives.\u201d<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201c<\/i>Takeda is committed to developing novel therapies that harness the innate immune system to fight cancer<\/i>,\u201d<\/i> said Kathy Seidl, Ph.D., head of the Oncology Drug Discovery Unit at Takeda. \u201c<\/i>This second license agreement with F-star allows us to apply the mAb2<\/sup><\/i>\u2122<\/i><\/sup> platform to generate novel bispecific antibodies leveraging innate immune mechanisms to eliminate tumor cells creating value for the patients we serve<\/i>.\u201d<\/i>\n<\/p>\n
