Neurocrine Amends License Agreement with Takeda

Story Highlights

Invest with Confidence:

An announcement from Neurocrine ( (NBIX) ) is now available.

On January 24, 2025, Neurocrine Biosciences announced an amendment to its Exclusive License Agreement with Takeda Pharmaceutical, originally established in June 2020, to develop and commercialize osavampator. The amended agreement allows Neurocrine exclusive rights to develop and commercialize osavampator worldwide, except in Japan where Takeda retains rights. This strategic move shifts the partnership to a royalty-bearing license, positioning Neurocrine to advance osavampator, a potential first-in-class AMPA modulator for major depressive disorder, into Phase 3 trials. The agreement outlines shared development costs and mutual royalty arrangements, potentially enhancing Neurocrine’s market positioning and stakeholder value by streamlining its focus on osavampator’s global development, excluding Japan.
