Y-mAbs Announces 2020 Financial Results and Recent Corporate Developments

NEW YORK, Feb. 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Y-mAbs Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Y-mAbs”) (Nasdaq: YMAB) a development-stage clinical biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel, antibody-based therapeutic products for the treatment of cancer, today reported financial results for 2020.

“We are pleased with our 2020 financial results, especially seen in conjunction with the approval of DANYELZA, and the sale of our Priority Review Voucher for $105 million. For omburtamab, we are working closely with the FDA to address the Agency’s request for additional data, and we believe we have made progress and continue to work very hard on resubmitting the BLA. We also entered into a licensing agreement for Greater China for DANYELZA and omburtamab including milestones of up to $120 million and distribution agreements for DANYELZA and omburtamab for Eastern Europe, Russia and Israel, and thereby secured expanded access for children around the world to this important immunotherapy,” stated Thomas Gad, founder, Chairman and President.

Dr. Claus Moller, Chief Executive Officer, continued, “We successfully completed a follow-on offering with gross proceeds of approximately $115.0 million earlier this week, and in parallel, we are making good progress in the clinic and have continued to advance the earlier stage programs in our pipeline. Nivatrotamab, our leading bispecific antibody, recently received ODD and RPDD from the FDA and our INDs for nivatrotamab in Small Cell Lung Cancer (Phase 2) and 177Lu-omburtamab-DTPA for medulloblastoma (Phase 1/2) and B7-H3 positive CNS/leptomeningeal metastasis in adults (Phase 1/2) were recently cleared by the FDA.”
