Less than two months after Kailera Therapeutics Inc. made headlines with biopharma’s largest IPO to date, Parabilis Medicines Inc. has come along and surpassed it. The oncology-focused firm priced its upsized IPO of 3.5 million shares at $20 apiece for gross proceeds of $670 million, an amount that could rise to $770 million should underwriters exercise their full 5-million-share overallotment option.
Total biopharma financing through the first five months of 2026 reached $49.46 billion, the third-highest total for the period in the dataset and more than doubling of 2025’s $21.4 billion over the same stretch.
Total med-tech financing through the first five months of 2026 reached $11.01 billion, falling between 2024’s $12.76 billion and 2023’s $8.95 billion over the same period, and trailing 2025’s $14.83 billion.
