Seattle-based biotech. The deal is anticipated to close in the third quarter
of 2022, and will give Roche full rights to Good’s PD1-regulated IL-2
receptor agonist program. “[The program] nicely complements our efforts on
next-generation PD-1-targeted IL-2 therapeutics and our broader oncology
strategy of providing cancer patients with innovative solutions and improving
health outcomes,” James Sabry, Roche’s global head of pharma partnering, said
in a news release. Roche’s existing PD-L1 therapy, Tecentriq, is a
blockbuster, bringing in $3.63 billion in global sales as the French drugmaker’s
