of discovering and developing innovative therapeutics derived from our unique platform of antibody technologies. Over our 37 year history, we have built an extensive portfolio of fully-funded programs by advancing product candidates into the earlier
stages of development and licensing them to licensees who assumed the responsibilities of later stage development, approval and commercialization. Fully-funded programs are those for which our partners pay all of the development and
commercialization costs. As licensees advance these programs, we are eligible for potential milestone and royalty payments. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In March
2017, we transformed our business model to become a royalty aggregator where we focus on expanding our portfolio of fully-funded programs <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">by&nbsp;out-licensing&nbsp;our</FONT> internally developed product candidates
and acquiring potential milestone and royalty revenue streams on additional product candidates. We combined our royalty-aggregator model with a significantly reduced corporate cost structure. </P>

after the date of this prospectus supplement, all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and any free writing prospectus that we have authorized for use in connection

the value of an investment in our common stock, and the occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment. Moreover, the risks described are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks not presently known
to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may also significantly impair our business operations. Please also read carefully the section below titled &#147;Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.&#148; </I></P>

assuming all of our common stock in the aggregate amount of $30.0&nbsp;million during the term of the sales agreement with HCW is sold at that price, would increase our adjusted net tangible book value per share after the offering to $2.88 per share

stock through HCW as our sales agent. Sales of our common stock, if any, will be made at market prices by any method that is deemed to be an &#147;at the market&#148; offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. HCW may also purchase
shares of our common stock as principal if expressly authorized to do so by us. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">HCW will offer our common stock subject to the terms and

Subject to the terms and conditions of the sales agreement, HCW will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell on our behalf all of the shares of common stock requested to be sold by us. We may instruct HCW not to sell common stock if the
sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us in any such instruction. HCW or we may suspend the offering of our common stock being made through HCW under the sales agreement upon proper notice to the other party. HCW and we each

us, excluding commissions payable to HCW under the sales agreement, will be approximately $0.3&nbsp;million. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The remaining sales

with a long history of discovering and developing innovative therapeutics derived from our unique platform of antibody technologies. Over our 37-year history, we built an extensive portfolio of fully-funded programs by advancing product candidates
into the earlier stages of development and then licensing them to licensees who assumed the responsibilities of later stage development, approval and commercialization. Fully-funded programs are those for which our partners pay all of the
development and commercialization costs. As licensees advance these programs, we are eligible for potential milestone and royalty payments. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In March 2017, we transformed our business model to become a royalty aggregator where we focus on expanding our portfolio of fully-funded
programs by <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">out-licensing</FONT> our internally developed product candidates and acquiring potential milestone and royalty revenue streams on additional product candidates. We combined our royalty-aggregator model
with a significantly reduced corporate cost structure to further build value for our stockholders. We expect that a significant portion of our future revenue will be based on payments we may receive for milestones and royalties related to these
programs. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have designed our business model to create value for stockholders by assembling a diversified portfolio of biotech and
pharmaceutical revenue streams and operating that business with an efficient and low corporate cost structure. Our goal is to become a sustainably profitable company that offers investors an opportunity to participate in the promise of the biotech
industry in a diversified, lower-risk business investment than a typical biotech model. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Risks Associated with our Business </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our business is subject to numerous risks, as described under the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; contained in the applicable prospectus

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before deciding whether to invest in our securities, you should consider carefully
the risks and uncertainties described under the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; contained in the applicable prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus, and discussed under the section entitled &#147;Risk Factors&#148; contained
in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our most recent Quarterly Report on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Form&nbsp;10-Q,</FONT> as well as any amendments thereto reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC, which are incorporated
by reference into this prospectus in their entirety, together with other information in this prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference and any free writing prospectus that we may authorize for use in connection with this offering. The
risks described in these documents are not the only ones we face, but those that we consider to be material. There may be other unknown or unpredictable economic, business, competitive, regulatory or other factors that could have material adverse
effects on our future results. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. If any of these risks actually occurs, our
business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please also read carefully the
section below entitled &#147;Forward-Looking Statements.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:24pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B><A NAME="toc660043_4"></A>Forward-Looking Statements </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This prospectus, including the documents that we incorporate by reference herein, contains, and any applicable prospectus supplement or free
writing prospectus may contain, forward-looking statements that relate to future periods, which are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section&nbsp;27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;),
Section&nbsp;21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;Exchange Act&#148;), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are subject to the &#147;safe harbor&#148; created by those sections. The words
&#147;believe,&#148; &#147;may,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;continue,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;intend,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148; &#147;predict,&#148; &#147;project,&#148; &#147;potential,&#148; &#147;believe,&#148;
&#147;should,&#148; &#147;could&#148; and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Examples of these statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: the sufficiency of our cash resources, our future
operating expenses, our future losses, the extent to which our issued and pending patents may protect our products and technology, the potential of our existing product candidates to lead to the development of commercial products, our ability to
receive potential milestone or royalty payments&nbsp;under license and collaboration agreements and the timing of receipt of those payments, the timing and adequacy of cost-cutting measures, and our ability to defend against claims that have been
made in litigation. These statements are based on assumptions that may not prove accurate. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated due to certain risks inherent in the biotechnology industry and for our licensees engaged in the
development of new products in a regulated market. Among other things, these risks include: our product candidates subject to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">out-license</FONT> agreements are still being developed, and our licensees may require
substantial funds to continue development which may not be available; we may not realize the expected benefits of our cost-saving initiatives; we may not be successful in entering into <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">out-license</FONT> agreements
for our product candidates; if our therapeutic product candidates do not receive regulatory approval, our third-party licensees will not be able to manufacture and market them; products or technologies of other companies may render some or all of
our product candidates noncompetitive or obsolete; we do not know whether there will be, or will continue to be, a viable market for the products in which we have an ownership or royalty interest; even once approved, a product may be subject to
additional testing or significant marketing restrictions, its approval may be withdrawn or it may be voluntarily taken off the market; we and our licensees are subject to various state and federal healthcare related laws and regulations that may
impact the commercialization of our product candidates and could subject us to significant fines and penalties; and certain of our technologies are <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">in-licensed</FONT> from third parties, so our capabilities using
them are restricted and subject to additional risks.<I> </I>These and other risks, including those related to current economic and financial market conditions, are described in more detail in &#147;Risk Factors&#148; above and the additional risk
factors contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> and Quarter Reports on Form&nbsp;10-Q. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, regardless of any new
information, future events or other occurrences. We advise you, however, to consult any additional disclosures we make in our reports to the SEC on Forms <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K,</FONT> <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-Q</FONT> and <FONT

all matters presented to the stockholders for their vote or approval, including the election of directors. Any matter brought before the stockholders for a vote, other than the election of directors, will generally be decided by a majority of the
votes cast on the matter, unless the matter is one in which an express provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation, the bylaws, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to us,
applicable law or pursuant to any regulation applicable to us or our securities requires a different vote, in which case the express provision will govern and control the decision of the matter. Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes

able to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the board of directors or due to the resignation or departure of an existing board member. Provisions of Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could make

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We can issue securities in registered form or in the form of one or more global securities. We describe global securities in greater detail
below. We refer to those persons who have securities registered in their own names on the books that we or any applicable trustee, depositary or warrant agent maintain for this purpose as the &#147;holders&#148; of those securities. These persons
are the legal holders of the securities. We refer to those persons who, indirectly through others, own beneficial interests in securities that are not registered in their own names, as &#147;indirect holders&#148; of those securities. As we discuss
below, indirect holders are not legal holders, and investors in securities issued in book-entry form or in street name will be indirect holders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Book-Entry Holders </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may issue
securities in book-entry form only, as we will specify in the applicable prospectus supplement. This means securities may be represented by one or more global securities registered in the name of a financial institution that holds them as depositary
on behalf of other financial institutions that participate in the depositary&#146;s book-entry system. These participating institutions, which are referred to as participants, in turn, hold beneficial interests in the securities on behalf of
themselves or their customers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Only the person in whose name a security is registered is recognized as the holder of that security.
Securities issued in global form will be registered in the name of the depositary or its participants. Consequently, for securities issued in global form, we will recognize only the depositary as the holder of the securities, and we will make all
payments on the securities to the depositary. The depositary passes along the payments it receives to its participants, which in turn pass the payments along to their customers who are the beneficial owners. The depositary and its participants do so
under agreements they have made with one another or with their customers; they are not obligated to do so under the terms of the securities. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As a result, investors in a book-entry security will not own securities directly. Instead, they will own beneficial interests in a global
security, through a bank, broker or other financial institution that participates in the depositary&#146;s book-entry system or holds an interest through a participant. As long as the securities are issued in global form, investors will be indirect
holders, and not legal holders, of the securities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Street Name Holders </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may terminate a global security or issue securities in <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-global</FONT> form. In these cases, investors
may choose to hold their securities in their own names or in &#147;street name.&#148; Securities held by an investor in street name would be registered in the name of a bank, broker or other financial institution that the investor chooses, and the
investor would hold only a beneficial interest in those securities through an account he or she maintains at that institution. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For
securities held in street name, we or any applicable trustee or depositary will recognize only the intermediary banks, brokers and other financial institutions in whose names the securities are registered as the holders of those securities, and we
or any applicable trustee or depositary will make all payments on those securities to them. These institutions pass along the payments they receive to their customers who are the beneficial owners, but only because they agree to do so in their
customer agreements or because they are legally required to do so. Investors who hold securities in street name will be indirect holders, not holders, of those securities. </P>

as the obligations of any applicable trustee and of any third parties employed by us or a trustee, run only to the legal holders of the securities. We do not have obligations to investors who hold beneficial interests in global securities, in street
name or by any other indirect means. This will be the case whether an investor chooses to be an indirect holder of a security or has no choice because we are issuing the securities only in global form. </P>

responsibility for the payment or notice even if that legal holder is required, under agreements with its participants or customers or by law, to pass it along to the indirect holders but does not do so. Similarly, we may want to obtain the approval
of the legal holders to amend an indenture, to relieve us of the consequences of a default or of our obligation to comply with a particular provision of the indenture or for other purposes. In such an event, we would seek approval only from the
holders, and not the indirect holders, of the securities. Whether and how the legal holders contact the indirect holders is up to the legal holders. </P>

represented by a global security that we issue to, deposit with and register in the name of a financial institution or its nominee that we select. The financial institution that we select for this purpose is called the depositary. Unless we specify
otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, DTC will be the depositary for all securities issued in book-entry form. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A global
security may not be transferred to or registered in the name of anyone other than the depositary, its nominee or a successor depositary, unless special termination situations arise. We describe those situations below under &#147;Special Situations
When a Global Security Will Be Terminated.&#148; As a result of these arrangements, the depositary, or its nominee, will be the sole registered owner and legal holder of all securities represented by a global security, and investors will be
permitted to own only beneficial interests in a global security. Beneficial interests must be held by means of an account with a broker, bank or other financial institution that in turn has an account with the depositary or with another institution
that does. Thus, an investor whose security is represented by a global security will not be a legal holder of the security, but only an indirect holder of a beneficial interest in the global security. </P>

through any book-entry clearing system. </P>

securities with no established trading market. Any underwriters may make a market in these securities, but will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. We cannot guarantee the liquidity of the
trading markets for any securities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Any underwriter may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, short-covering transactions
and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation&nbsp;M under the Exchange Act. Over-allotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which create a short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so
long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum price. Syndicate-covering or other short-covering transactions involve purchases of the securities, either through exercise of the over-allotment option or in the open market after the
distribution is completed, to cover short positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a stabilizing or covering transaction to cover
short positions. Those activities may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of the activities at any time. </P>

the common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market in accordance with Regulation&nbsp;M under the Exchange Act, during the business day prior to the pricing of the offering, before the commencement of offers or sales of the common stock. Passive market
makers must comply with applicable volume and price limitations and must be identified as passive market makers. In general, a passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid for such security; if
all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker&#146;s bid, however, the passive market maker&#146;s bid must then be lowered when certain purchase limits are exceeded. Passive market making may stabilize the market price of the
securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In
