ImaginAb, Inc. Concludes Licensing Agreement With UCLA for Novel Radiochemistry Technology
Date:4/18/2011

LOS ANGELES, April 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ImaginAb, Inc. and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have concluded a technology licensing agreement relating to novel fluorine chemistry for the rapid and robust labeling of proteins, peptides and biomolecules for diagnostic imaging with Positron Emission Tomography (PET).

"We are pleased that ImaginAb has expanded its technology portfolio and recognized the cutting-edge work being developed by the Crump Institute," said Dr. Claire Wake, Director, at the university's Office of Intellectual Property and Industry Sponsored Research (OIP-ISR).

"UCLA is truly a world leader in technologies related to PET, from Molecular and Medical Pharmacology department chair Dr. Michael Phelps' pioneering of the field some thirty years ago to the incredible multi-disciplinary innovation occurring there today," said Dr. Christian Behrenbruch, CEO of ImaginAb. "This technology will become an important part of ImaginAb's strategy to combine the readily available and low-cost supply of F-18 from existing cyclotron networks with ImaginAb's rapid development of targeted molecular imaging agents based on antibody fragments and other small protein scaffolds."

The licensed technology originates from the UCLA's Crump Institute for Molecular Imaging through research sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy. The agreement grants exclusivity to ImaginAb for antibodies and antibody fragments.
