With cash in the bank and an eye on Eu­rope, Neu­ro­crine buys out a Lon­don-based out­fit

As ris­ing sales for its lead prod­uct give Neu­ro­crine some ex­tra cash to work with, the biotech is jump­ing on a buy­out. Just don’t look for any­thing huge.

Neu­ro­crine is ac­quir­ing Lon­don-based Di­ur­nal Group for £48.3 mil­lion, or $56.57 mil­lion, in cash. On top of its two mar­ket­ed treat­ments for chron­ic en­docrine dis­eases, Neu­ro­crine is hop­ing to bring in Di­ur­nal’s team of 33 — all of which will beef up its clin­i­cal de­vel­op­ment and com­mer­cial ca­pa­bil­i­ties in Eu­rope.
