DLA Piper advised the underwriters on a US$50 million offering of common stock for Jasper Therapeutics

DLA Piper advised TD Cowen, Evercore and RBC on a US$50 million underwritten offering of common stock for Jasper Therapeutics, a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing novel antibody therapies targeting c-Kit (CD117) to address diseases, such as chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and lower to intermediate risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), as well as novel stem cell transplant conditioning regimes. TD Cowen and Evercore served as joint book-running managers, and RBC served as lead manager.

“Congratulations to our clients TD Cowen, Evercore and RBC, as well as Jasper on the successful closing of this offering,” said Stephen Alicanti, the DLA Piper partner who led the deal team. “On behalf of our team, it was a pleasure to work on this deal and have an opportunity to demonstrate our extensive life sciences and capital markets capabilities.”

In addition to Alicanti (New York), the DLA Piper team included associates Gina Lee and Kim McKenzie (both in Raleigh) and Sasha Grynszpan (New York).
