Shares of Yumanity Therapeutics Inc. jumped more than 50% on Monday after the clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company unveiled plans for a reverse merger with immuno-oncology company Kineta Inc.
Yumanity said Kineta's shareholders will own about 85% of the combined company, which will adopt the Kineta name and focus on its cancer pipeline, along with Yumanity's 2020 research collaboration with Merck & Co. that is potentially worth more than $500 million.
In a related move, Boston-based Yumanity said it agreed to sell its most advanced product candidate, YTX-7739, and its unpartnered discovery-stage neuroscience product candidates and targets to Johnson & Johnson for $26 million in cash.
Yumanity shares have fallen sharply this year after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration placed a partial clinical hold on studies of YTX-7739 in the progressive nervous-system disorder Parkinson's disease. The stock fell to as low as 95 cents in March, well below its 52-week high of $16.89 reached last June.
Shares of Yumanity, which went public in a reverse merger with Proteostasis Therapeutics Inc. in December 2020, were recently changing hands at $2.14, up nearly 51%.
