The collaboration with Biogen leverages AbCellera’s expertise in complex challenges in neurological disease.

In November 2023, AbCellera signed a multi-year, multi-programme deal with Prelude Therapeutics.

The collaboration focuses on the discovery, development and marketing of treatments for cancer patients.

Prelude contributes its expertise in targeted protein degradation and AbCellera provides its antibody discovery engine to develop novel precision antibody-drug conjugates.

AbCellera Partnering senior vice-president Murray McCutcheon stated: “Delivering biologics across the blood-brain barrier is one of the most important and long-standing problems in neuroscience.

“We are excited to work with Biogen on this innovative programme, which has the potential to unlock multiple new approaches to treating neurological conditions.”
