LD Micro 20th Annual Main Event Conference summary
20 Oct, 2026Platform and business model
Transgenic mice, rats and chickens with human immune systems produce fully human antibodies for partner drug discovery.
Biological intelligence from the animals is paired with AI-powered proprietary screening to identify antibodies against selected targets.
Licensing generates upfront fees and may include research services, development milestones and royalties; partners develop the drugs.
110 partners, including 8 of the top 10 pharma companies, support 425 active programs net of attrition as of June 30.
The 425 programs carry more than $3 billion in aggregate milestones and an average royalty rate of 3.4%.
Partner pipeline and clinical catalysts
34 partner drugs are in clinical development, with approximately $340 million in remaining associated milestones.
Immunovant’s IMVT-1402 has pivotal readouts in myasthenia gravis and Graves’ disease expected next year; success could support a filing, with analyst consensus peak sales of $3 billion and launch in 2028.
Teva’s phase II TEV-408 has reported results in celiac disease and vitiligo; further data are expected next year, with development expanding to certain dermatitis and alopecia indications.
J&J’s ramantamig advanced from phase I directly to phase III this year; partner programs have clinical data readouts scheduled over the next 15 months.
xPloration screening platform
xPloration screens millions of cells using imaging, AI analysis and automated laser recovery; a chip can hold about 1.5 million cells.
Screening can deliver 100–200 antibody hits to a partner in about a day.
The B-cell screening market was estimated at $500 million; instruments sell for $500,000 each, with recurring single-use consumables.
Instrument sales are forecast at $2 million–$3 million this year, doubling in 2027 and doubling again in 2028.
