Sichuan Kelun-Biotech Biopharmaceutical (HKG:6990) received an upfront payment from Windward Bio under a license agreement for an anti-thymic stromal lymphopoietin monoclonal antibody (mAb), a Friday Hong Kong bourse filing said.
The payment includes cash received in February and equity interest in the parent company of Windward Bio, which was settled in May.
The biopharmaceutical firm and HBM (HKG:2142) in January granted Switzerland-based Windward Bio an exclusive license for the research, development, manufacturing, and commercialization of the drug across the globe, except in Greater China and several Southeast and West Asian countries.
