Abstract

Alexion, a rare disease–focused group within AstraZeneca, will acquire the genomic medicine company LogicBio Therapeutics. Alexion says it is interested in LogicBio’s technology for delivering and inserting genes using adeno-associated viruses to address rare genetic diseases. Alexion is paying $2.07 per share, or about $70 million—well over LogicBio’s share price of less than 50 cents before the deal was announced.
