Emergent acquires Trubion Pharma

Emergent BioSolutions (Emergent) has completed the acquisition of Trubion Pharmaceuticals (Trubion) following a majority vote from the Trubion stockholders.

With this take over, Emergent gains access to multiple, advanced stage candidates in the key disease areas of oncology and autoimmunity as well as access to new and versatile protein therapeutic platforms.

Emergent chairman and CEO Fuad El-Hibri said that Emergent’s acquisition of Trubion helps achieve their goal of diversifying beyond infectious diseases.

Emergent said that it will maintain research facilities in Seattle, Washington and the location will become a therapeutics-focused product development site.
