This episode report on the major acquisition of Halda Therapeutics by Johnson & Johnson (J&J) for $3.05 billion in cash, a move intended to significantly enhance J&J's oncology pipeline, particularly in prostate cancer treatments. Central to the deal is Halda’s proprietary Regulated Induced Proximity Targeting Chimera (RIPTAC) platform and its lead candidate, HLD-0915, an oral therapy demonstrating promising early efficacy in treating metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The sources highlight that this acquisition, which also includes earlier-stage candidates for breast and lung cancers, supports J&J's broader goal of reaching $50 billion in cancer sales by 2030. Expected to close within the next few months, the transaction is recognized as an important strategic investment, although J&J anticipates a slight dilution to its 2026 adjusted earnings per share due to closing-related charges.
