Robert, Not sure on money spent by SRGN, but $150 million comes to mind (I think that one of the Bear Stearns or H&Q? reports had given a fairly hard number).

From June 4, 1998 BARS report:

This deal was primarily driven by Seragen's lead compound, Ontak, which is under
FDA consideration to treat cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL).
- Seragen has spent over $200 million in the development of this technology.
- Eli Lilly has spent another $20 million on Ontak.
- We believe that Ontak is a late stage product that fits well in Ligand's cancer
franchise, specifically to treat CTCL.
