BioNTech Receives Approval to Fully Acquire CureVac, Says German Antitrust Authority

BioNTech will fully acquire its Dutch competitor CureVac through a share swap, according to an announcement from the German Federal Cartel Office. The regulator stated there are no significant overlaps between the companies' research pipelines, particularly in mRNA-based medicines, and does not expect any restriction of innovation competition from the deal. BioNTech currently markets its COVID-19 vaccine "COMIRNATY" in cooperation with Pfizer, while CureVac has no approved products on the market. The potential applications of mRNA technology extend beyond COVID-19 vaccines to include cancer therapies.
