Amgen to Acquire Alantos

by @ 4:08 pm.  Filed under Pharma News

Amgen has another merger in process, now with Alantos for $300 million.

RED HERRING | Amgen to Acquire Alantos:

Now they also are purchasing Ilpysa which I posted about recently. Altantos has a phase II drug for diabetes a somewhat crowded market. I personally think they may have overpiad for what they get.

I find it interesting that now even the biotechs are getting into the acquisition mania. It wouldn’t surprise me if Genetech starts on a buying binge just to keep pace.
