Nanobiotix announce global licensing pact with Johnson & Johnson for NBTXR3

Nanobiotix (NBTX) announced a global licensing, co-development, and commercialization agreement with Janssen Pharmaceutica, one of the Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), for the investigational radioenhancer NBTXR3. NBTXR3 is currently being evaluated in several studies across solid tumor indications including NANORAY-312, a global Phase 3 pivotal study evaluating NBTXR3 for the treatment of patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer. NBTXR3 is also being evaluated for its potential as a systemic agent in combination with anti-PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitors for patients with metastatic cancers. Under the terms of the license agreement, in collaboration with the Interventional Oncology R&D Unit at Johnson & Johnson, Nanobiotix will grant Janssen a worldwide license for the development and commercialization of NBTXR3. The license is exclusive, excepting territories previously licensed to Nanobiotix partner LianBio.
