Over the last few months, Roivant and Immunovant considered a number of options, such as Roivant acquiring a minority position in Immunovant, but finally decided on this huge investment to support a strong development strategy for IMVT-1401 and grow their stake in the firm. They’re really enthusiastic about the potential for IMVT-1401 and are thrilled to be able to help Immunovant with this investment. They look forward to working with Dr. Salzmann and the Immunovant management team to further develop IMVT-1401 so that it can provide the most benefit to individuals with high unmet medical needs
