- GSK GSK.L on Wednesday agreed to pay $950 million in cash for Canadian biopharmaceutical company 35Pharma Inc, which is developing a medicine for pulmonary hypertension.

The deal marks GSK's second major acquisition under new CEO Luke Miels, after it agreed to buy RAPT Therapeutics RAPT.O for $2.2 billion in January.

GSK will acquire 35Pharma's in-development drug to treat pulmonary hypertension, a life-shortening disease marked by high blood pressure in the lungs, helping the company expand its respiratory portfolio.

The British drugmaker earlier this week agreed to a $1 billion deal to acquire global rights to develop Frontier Biotechnologies' 688221.SS two small interfering RNA therapies targeting kidney diseases.
