CAMBRIDGE, England — Cambridge Antibody Technology has granted iCo Therapeutics an exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialize CAT-213, a human monoclonal antibody developed by CAT as a potential treatment for allergy disorders including allergic conjunctivitis, the companies announced in a press release.

Under the terms of the agreement, iCo Therapeutics will pay CAT an up-front fee, milestone payments for key clinical and regulatory achievements and royalties on future sales. ICo Therapeutics, which will have sole responsibility for all future clinical development and commercialization, plans to initially advance the compound for treating ocular allergies.

CAT-213 is a human anti-eotaxin-1 monoclonal antibody, which has been safe and well-tolerated in phase 1 and 2 studies.
