On October 8, 2026 Biohaven Ltd. and Ono Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. entered an exclusive licensing and collaboration agreement granting Ono rights to develop and commercialize Biohaven's MoDE pan-IgG degrader portfolio in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and ASEAN countries. The licensed assets include BHV-1300, the lead extracellular IgG degrader in Phase 3 for Graves' disease, plus next-generation candidates BHV-1310 and BHV-1320. Ono will pay up to $100 million in upfront payments -- $80 million at signing and $20 million on a near-term milestone -- plus approximately 20% royalties on net sales in the territory. Biohaven retains rights in the United States, Europe and China. This is Biohaven's first regional partnership for its extracellular protein degrader platform.

This deal is too recent to grade. Critic Score and Outcome Score are assigned after the announcement-week coverage settles and, for Outcome, after the 5-year post-close assessment window opens — expected 2031 at the earliest for this deal, once/if it closes.
