Lund­beck out-li­cens­es three can­di­dates to Cam­bridge biotech

Lund­beck is out-li­cens­ing three can­di­dates to Neu­ro3 Ther­a­peu­tics, a two-year-old biotech based in Cam­bridge — and giv­ing it­self an op­tion to li­cense back those rights in cer­tain ter­ri­to­ries.

Ac­cord­ing to Mon­day’s an­nounce­ment, the deal gives Neu­ro3 one pre­clin­i­cal and two clin­i­cal-stage can­di­dates, all of which tar­get and ac­ti­vate KC­NQ2, an ion chan­nel. The com­pa­nies said Lund­beck can choose to de­vel­op and com­mer­cial­ize the can­di­dates along­side Neu­ro3 af­ter proof-of-con­cept.
