Lantheus Holdings said it has withdrawn and refiled its Hart-Scott-Rodino Act pre-merger notification regarding its $8B acquisition of Curium. The withdrawal, done on Sept. 17, was made to provide the Federal Trade Commission with additional time to review the merger, according to an SEC filing. The resubmission was filed on Monday, meaning the standard HSR 30-day waiting period will end on Oct. 21 at 11:59 p.m. Lantheus said a refiling is routine procedure for antitrust review and still expects the merger to close in H1 2027.
