the products. (Also see "Genmab Lands Experienced Partner AbbVie In Broad Bispecific Antibody Collaboration" - Scrip, 10 Jun, 2020.)
"At a minimum, we will ask for 50% co-ownership," van de Winkel said, pointing to the AbbVie partnership as an example of the kinds of deals Genmab hopes to mirror in the future. "That is one of the nice things about the AbbVie relationship, they were perfectly on board to do 50/50 with us.

Wealthier biotechs are gaining new leverage when it comes to deal-making, van de Winkel added. "The dynamics between smaller biotech companies and bigger players is changing right now because some of the biotech companies, like Genmab, are very well capitalized."
Genmab also plans to retain full ownership of some molecules, at least in the regions where it builds up a commercial presence.

"It's difficult to say right now which molecule it will be [that] we will hang onto 100%," he said. If it is a drug targeted to a smaller cancer indication that can be marketed optimally with a specialized sales force, then that would be an appropriate candidate to launch independently, but for a drug with broad reach like Darzalex, the exec explained Genmab will still look to partner, particularly because of the broad scope of the clinical development program.
-
The most advanced candidate in the deal with AbbVie is epcoritamab (CD3xCD20), which moved into Phase III testing in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) early this year. (Also see "Genmab/AbbVie’s Epcoritamab Advances As Deal Bears Fruit" - Scrip, 14 Jan, 2021.) The deal also includes two other bispecific antibody candidates developed using Genmab's DuoHexaBody and DuoBody development platforms, which Genmab expects will continue to deliver drug candidates into the pipeline.

Bispecific antibodies are getting a lot of attention, although toxicity concerns remain. Genmab is developing a PD-L1x4-1BB bispecific antibody in early clinical testing in solid tumors in collaboration with BioNTech SE a collaboration dating back to 2015 that gives Genmab 50/50 commercial rights.

J&J recently submitted a biologic licensing application for a Genmab-developed bispecific antibody with the FDA. Amivantamab targets tumors with activating and resistant EGFR mutations and MET mutations. It is pending approval for patients with non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, whose tumors do not typically respond to standard of care.

Pink Sheet, 11 Dec, 2020.) Amivantamab was developed using Genmab's DuoBody platform and licensed to Janssen.
J&J has a full range of bispecific antibodies in development with Genmab, including teclistamab (BCMAxDC3) in early clinical development for relapsed refractory multiple myeloma and four more candidates in earlier trials.
