Chiome Bioscience and fellow Japanese firm Chugai Pharmaceutical have signed a joint research agreement for the generation of monoclonal  antibodies against multiple target proteins chosen by Chugai.

Both companies will develop novel value-added therapeutic monoclonal  antibodies employing Chiome's Autonomously Diversifying Library System  to assess target proteins and generate leads of products for clinical  use.

Chugai will pay a contractual up-front fee to Chiome as well as  milestones based on the results of the research. Other contractual  conditions were not disclosed.
