Amolyt Pharma raised capital across five funding rounds from 2019 through 2023, including involvement from lead investors such as EQT Life Sciences and Intermediate Capital Group. The company was acquired by AstraZeneca in March 2024 for up to $1.05 billion in total consideration, comprising $800 million upfront and $250 million in contingent milestone payments, with the transaction closing in July 2024. The acquisition bolstered AstraZeneca's rare disease pipeline through its Alexion division, particularly strengthening the company's bone metabolism franchise with eneboparatide as a late-stage asset.

The round built on positive momentum, with Phase 1 results presented at the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research meeting on October 1, 2021.
