Regeneron and ModeX Forge Potential $1 Billion+ Collaboration to Develop Multispecific Antibody Drugs
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals and ModeX Therapeutics (an OPKO Health company) announced a new license and collaboration agreement to develop multispecific antibody drugs for several mutually selected therapeutic indications247.
ModeX will apply its MSTAR platform in conjunction with Regeneron's proprietary antibody binders to create candidates that target multiple biological pathways within a single molecule24.
The collaboration starts with a $7 million upfront payment to ModeX, and includes future product selection, clinical, regulatory, and commercial milestone payments that could exceed $200 million per selected molecule2457.
If multiple products progress successfully through development and commercialization, the overall value of the agreement could surpass $1 billion247.
ModeX is eligible for tiered royalties based on global net sales, reaching up to low double digits at higher tiers24.
Regeneron will fund and lead preclinical studies, clinical development, and commercial operations for any chosen antibody drug candidates24.
Targeted therapeutic areas for the multispecific antibodies include immunology, oncology, and metabolic diseases4.
