The biotech IPO boom is be­com­ing ‘his­toric’ as four more throw their hats in

Four more US biotechs filed to go pub­lic Fri­day as yet more com­pa­nies clam­ber to get through a yawn­ing IPO win­dow and on­to a mar­ket that’s sig­naled its will­ing­ness to re­ward near­ly any new drug­mak­er.

The new en­trants are led by ALX On­col­o­gy and the bi­o­log­i­cal an­a­lyt­ics biotech Berke­ley Lights, each of whom filed to raise $100 mil­lion. The au­toim­mune com­pa­ny Pan­dion Ther­a­peu­tics al­so filed for $75 mil­lion, and Kiromic Bio­phar­ma, a tiny im­muno-on­col­o­gy start­up based in San An­to­nio, filed for $25 mil­lion.
