LONDON -(Dow Jones)- UK biotechnology company Cambridge Antibody Technology Group PLC (CATG) Friday was awarded costs in its legal case against Abbott Laboratories Inc (ABT) over the level of royalties for rheumatoid arthritis drug Humira.

The amount of the costs will be determined in a separate proceeding.

Justice Laddie, referring to Humira, said that this is the first significant exploitation of a breakthrough technology for which Cambridge Antibody is responsible. As a result, he ruled that it's appropriate the company receives adequate compensation for the expenses it incurred in the case.

Abbott Laboratories and Cambridge Antibody could not be immediately reached for comment.
