Novo Nordisk offloads preclinical cancer candidate from $1.1B Forma buyout

02 Mar 2023
Acquisition
When Novo Nordisk first approached Forma Therapeutics about a deal, the Danish drugmaker made clear that it was really only interested in Forma’s sickle cell drug etavopivat. Even though Forma ultimately convinced Novo to buy the whole company — complete with a slate of oncology programs — for $1.1 billion, Novo isn’t keeping all of them around.
Lausanne, Switzerland-based Debiopharm has bought from Novo global rights to FT-3171, a small molecule USP1 inhibitorUSP1 inhibitor program previously developed by Forma, it announced in a press release. No financials were provided.
