Xoma Getting Funding, Milestone Payments Up to $75 Million in Schering-Plough Deal

BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) -- Drug research company XOMA Ltd. could see funding and milestone payments between $25 million and $75 million as part of a collaboration with Schering-Plough Corp. to develop monoclonal antibodies for disease diagnosis and treatment.

Schering-Plough will fund XOMA's research and development, make upfront and milestone payments, and pay royalties to XOMA on future sales of a treatment. The deal was announced Tuesday, and posted on the Securities and Exchange Commission's Web site on Friday.
