AnaptysBio Inc. shares rose 10% to $27.72 after hours as a second approved indication for a GlaxoSmithKline PLC drug will result in a $20 million milestone payment.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved GSK's Jemperli for the treatment of adult patients with mismatch repair deficient recurrent or advanced solid tumors.

Jemperli was generated by AnaptysBio and subsequently developed by Tesaro Inc., which GSK bought in early 2019.
