Summit spent big on its collaboration and licensing agreement with Akeso to market ivonescimab, a bispecific antibody to treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In its quarterly report, the company said it lost $542.4 million, compared to a loss of $21.4 million in the same period a year ago, citing $520.9 million of expenses of in-licensing ivonescimab from Akeso. It has a long way to go to get approval for the drug and it will likely need to raise cash in the meantime.
