I am not so sure their intention is to start licensing this technology to other parties. At least not just yet.

This deal looks to me more like the purchase last year of IntraImmune Therapies. I.e. the acquisition of a complementary technology, which will extend the use of MABs beyond "simple" naked antibodies. To a certain extent their license agreement with ImmunoGen does also fit nicely into such a strategy.

Coming back to the ABGX/MEDX situation. Perhaps we are seeing two different approaches here. While Medarex are very busy signing up new collaborators for their present generation of MAB-generating techniques, ABGX are already trying to find new ways of extending the use of MABs, beyond the present frontiers. Interesting.
