Acrivon Therapeutics buys JAK1 inhibitor ACR-525 and PKCθ program from Aqilion
Acrivon Therapeutics said it acquired Aqilion AB's oral JAK1 inhibitor ACR-525 (formerly AQ280) and a PKCθ inhibitor preclinical program in an asset purchase, paying an undisclosed cash amount. The company says it has no obligation to make milestone or royalty payments, and a separate agreement ends prior royalty and milestone obligations on ACR-525 owed to LEO Pharma. The filing gives no financial results or deal value, so its effect on shareholders is not quantified.
Key points
- Acrivon paid undisclosed cash consideration with no future milestone or royalty payments owed to Aqilion
- Acrivon, Aqilion and LEO Pharma terminated prior royalty and milestone obligations on ACR-525
- Eosinophilic esophagitis is the first potential indication for ACR-525, which is described as Phase 2-ready
- Acrivon will host a KOL webcast on November 10, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. ET
