Maiwald acted as legal advisor to Royalty Pharma in connection with an innovative funding agreement totaling up to $2 billion with Revolution Medicines. The transaction includes up to $1.25 billion in synthetic royalty funding and a secured term loan of up to $750 million.
This strategic partnership enables Revolution Medicines to independently advance and globally commercialize daraxonrasib, a potentially game-changing RAS(ON) inhibitor currently in Phase 3 clinical trials for pancreatic cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). If successful, daraxonrasib could become the first targeted therapy to inhibit all major forms of RAS — one of the most common drivers of human cancers.
The agreement highlights Royalty Pharma’s ability to deliver flexible, large-scale capital solutions to innovative biotech companies while allowing them to retain full control over development and commercialization.
