Roche and GLYCART to discover new therapeutic antibodies
"We have rapidly generated GlycoMAbTM versions of Roche's antibody with dramatically enhanced potency, and we are pleased that after this initial technology evaluation, Roche has decided to license GlycoMAbTM," said Pablo Uma?a, PhD, CSO of GLYCART. Joël Jean-Mairet, PhD, CEO of GLYCART, added, "The significance of bringing our technology to a global antibody player such as Roche cannot be underestimated. Clearly, this collaboration will be invaluable to GLYCART in continuing to forge partnerships with the leading antibody companies."
"In the first quarter of this year, 49 percent of Roche's sales came from biotechnology products," explained Peter Hug, Roche's Global Head of Pharma Partnering. "To maintain and expand our leadership in the antibody market, and in disease areas such as oncology, Roche will continue to partner with excellent antibody companies such as GLYCART."
