Takeda acquiring Nimbus Therapeutics subsid for US$4 BillionDecember 13, 2022 - Takeda is paying $4 billion upfront to buy Nimbus’ wholly owned subsidiary, Nimbus Lakshmi, to obtain NDI-034858, a TYK2 inhibitor to be applied in psoriasis. TYK2 is part of the JAK family.
"By persuading Takeda that NDI-034858 can come from behind to make a dent on the market, Nimbus has continued a winning streak and business model that has allowed it to offload drug candidates while keeping its discovery engine in a high gear."
