Vertex Pharmaceuticals has never made a deal like this before.
I may be wrong but Alexion has thus far managed to retain its identity despite being acquired by AZ. The identity also extends to operating independently. OTOH Ra Pharma (acquired by UCB) has been totally subsumed.
Interesting - I used to do a lot with Alexion, but lost touch a while back… Glad to hear it, as ‘rare’ was part of them
