Celgene Seeks European Cancer Acquisition

May 20, 2005

Celgene, the U.S. group best known for reviving thalidomide as a treatment for cancer, is keen to buy a European company to increase its global reach, Chief Executive John Jackson said on Thursday. "We are always looking at opportunities to buy companies and ideally we would love to buy a European company that has a cancer pipeline plus marketing infrastructure in Europe," he told Reuters during a visit to London.
