Xoma

xoma has an extensive portfolio of products, programs, and technologies that are the subject of licenses the company has in place with other biotech and pharmaceutical companies. many of these licenses are the result of the company's pioneering efforts in the discovery and development of antibody therapeutics. there are more than 20 such programs that are fully funded by partners and could produce milestone payments and royalty payments in the future. in order to maximize its value in a licensing transaction, xoma continues to invest in x358, an allosteric monoclonal antibody that reduces insulin receptor activity, as the antibody could have a major impact on the treatment of hyperinsulinism. for more information, visit www.xoma.com.
