Gilead announced plans in July to pay $300 million for a 49.9% stake in Tizona Therapeutics, with the option to buy the rest of the company for $1.25 billion. Whether Gilead follows through with the acquisition will hinge on how well Tizona's investigational HLA-G inhibitor, TTX-080, fares in early-stage clinical trials.
