Foster City, California-based Gilead would value Immunomedics at more than twice as much as what the maker of the Trodelvy breast-cancer drug was valued at on Friday.Pharmaceutical companies have been coveting Immunomedics since the Food and Drug Administration unexpectedly accelerated approval for Trodelvy in April, after a study showed the drug beat back triple negative breast cancer for almost four months longer than chemotherapy in patients getting the medication as a third line of therapy.
Morris Plains, New Jersey-based Immunomedics has a market capitalization of $9.8 billion after the shares almost doubled this year. Gilead was valued at $82.2 billion as of Friday. Its shares were little changed in the year-to-date. “This acquisition represents significant progress in Gilead’s work to build a strong and diverse oncology portfolio,” Daniel O’Day, Gilead’s chairman and chief executive officer, said in the statement.
