AbbVie’s $1 Billion Bet On Gilgamesh: The Neuroscience Acquisition That Could Change Everything!

AbbVie’s reported discussions to acquire Gilgamesh Pharmaceuticals for approximately $1 billion mark the latest twist in the company’s aggressive M&A strategy, as it seeks new engines of growth beyond its ex-Humira platform. Just days after raising its 2025 guidance on the strength of Skyrizi, Rinvoq and Vyalev — and outlining an $8-year runway driven by oncology, neuroscience, immunology and aesthetics — AbbVie is doubling down on psychiatric innovation. Gilgamesh, a privately held developer of psychoplastogen-based therapies, has already joined forces with AbbVie on a co-development pact that could funnel up to $1.95 billion in milestone payments into novel mood-disorder treatments. With patent cliffs looming, competitive pricing pressures intensifying and new policy headwinds on drug affordability and tariffs, integrating Gilgamesh’s early-stage assets could bolster AbbVie’s R&D engine, complement its broad neuroscience franchise and deepen its pipeline where unmet need remains high. Below, we explore four key drivers of value and synergy that this deal could unlock for AbbVie’s next chapter.
