Danish Drama: Genmab Drops $8B on Cancer Cure Hope Seller

That's $8 billion, or roughly the cost of buying every Danish pastry in Copenhagen twice over. This deal lands Genmab firmly in Life Sciences prime, scheming to turn biology into cold, hard kroner. With cancer therapy innovation like this on the line, letâs hope Merus's drug fights neck and head tumors better than Genmab fought that price tag.
