BRAIN Biotech AG and Akribion Therapeutics GmbH sign exclusive pharma licensing agreement for G-dase E® CRISPR-Cas technology
Zwingenberg, Germany, 31.10.2024 – BRAIN Biotech AG signed an exclusive technology pharma licensing agreement with Akribion Therapeutics GmbH for its genome editing nuclease G-dase E®. In exchange for granting exclusive pharma rights to Akribion, BRAIN Biotech can receive up to EUR 92.3 million R&D and commercial milestone fees. In addition, the company will be entitled to royalties on net sales. The payment structure is based on clinical development progress and market success. Akribion is led by the two Co-CEOs Lukas Linnig and Dr. Michael Krohn, who will leave BRAIN Biotech in the next weeks to lead Akribion Therapeutics. Lukas and Michael will be joined by an experienced team of scientists and commercial developers. Akribion is financially backed by a venture capital consortium with a strong track record in early-stage pharma ventures. Adriaan Moelker, CEO of BRAIN Biotech AG, states: "This transaction marks the next important milestone to commercialize and partner projects from our BioIncubator segment which contains highly value-added projects. To successfully develop pharma projects, we have always been looking for strong partners with deep expertise in the sector. This strong venture capital consortium will now help develop this very promising new therapy approach together with the management and scientific team of Akribion Therapeutics, giving the technology the best chance for success whilst allowing BRAIN Biotech to focus on its core business. BRAIN Biotech will continue to realize additional commercialization options for our CRISPR-Cas nucleases outside the exclusively licensed field." Lukas Linnig, Co-CEO Akribion Therapeutics GmbH says: “We are pleased to see this transaction unfold with a strong consortium, a committed team and supportive licensing partner in BRAIN Biotech. We look forward to building Akribion Therapeutics as a key player to develop urgently needed medication for patients with life threatening diseases.” Dr. Michael Krohn, Co-CEO Akribion Therapeutics GmbH adds: “This pioneering technology holds the potential to significantly expand the treatment landscape, not only in oncology but across various therapeutic areas but always driven by our commitment to deliver innovative, ethically grounded treatments that improve outcomes for patients facing serious diseases.” The genome editing nuclease G-dase E® is part of the proprietary CRISPR-Cas genome editing nuclease portfolio of BRAIN Biotech AG and has been developed within the company’s BioIncubator pipeline of highly innovative projects. BRAIN Biotech intends to commercialize and monetize additional projects with high value from its BioIncubator pipeline during the next years. This transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions. +++ About BRAIN Biotech BRAIN Biotech AG is a leading provider of integrated solutions and products in the field of industrial biotechnology.
