Previous wording
As of March 31, 2025, we had 95 active partners with 378 active programs using the OmniAb technology platform, including 29 OmniAb-derived antibodies in clinical development by our partners, one under regulatory review, and three approved products developed and commercialized by our partners.
Current wording
As of June 30, 2025, we had 100 active partners with 381 active programs using the OmniAb technology platform, including 28 OmniAb-derived antibodies in clinical development by our partners, one under regulatory review, and three approved products developed and commercialized by our partners.
Previous wording
Active clinical programs and approved products represents the number of unique programs for which an Investigational New Drug Application or equivalent under other regulatory regimes has been filed based on an OmniAb-derived antibody and which are in clinical development by our partners. We continue to count programs as active as long as they are actively being developed, under regulatory review or commercialized. Where the date of such application is not known to us, we use the official start date from clinical trial registries for the purpose of calculating this metric. This number includes approved products separately disclosed in the table above. We view this metric as an indication of our near- and mid-term potential revenue from milestone fees and potential royalty payments in the long term.
