Global Cord Blood Corp. shares were up 15% to $3.42 after the company said Cellenkos Inc. recently got U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance for its Investigational New Drug application for CK0804.

This clearance allows Cellenkos to initiate a Phase 1b, open-label study of CK0804 as an add-on therapy to ruxolitinib in patients with myelofibrosis who experience a suboptimal response to ruxolitinib.

Global Cord Blood agreed to buy biotechnology company Cellenkos in April. At closing, Global Cord will issue 125 million new shares valued at $11 a share, and pay $664 million in cash.
