Bolstering its growing portfolio of fibrosis treatments, Bristol-Myers Squibb has paid $100 million upfront for access to Nitto Denko’s siRNA molecules targeting heat shock protein 47.

BMS has in recent years assembled a pipeline of fibrosis assets through deals that include options to buy Galecto Biotech and Promedior.
