Three big moves in seven weeks; how Kazia is turbocharging biotech innovation

Kazia Therapeutics CEO James Garner is a very happy man. After securing the company's third key licence in seven weeks, he tells us about the why's and how's.

Kazia Therapeutic‘s chief executive says he could do with catching up on sleep after a “whirlwind” seven weeks in which the $185 million cancer-focused Sydney biotech completed three different cross-border licensing deals.

Kazia on Monday announced it had licensed global rights to a promising small molecule oncology drug candidate from Germany-based Evotec SE (FRA:EVT) for an upfront payment of €1 million ($1.6 million), plus contingent milestone payments of up to €308 million ($480 million).
