          Johnson & Johnson said Monday that it would purchase Ambrx Biopharma for nearly $2 billion, picking up a company specializing in targeted chemotherapy treatments — one of the hottest areas of cancer drug development. 

          The deal, disclosed as the biopharma field marked the first day of the annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, extends a recent spate of pharma acquisitions, contributing to hopes that 2024 could be a better year for the industry.

          Under the agreement, J&J will pay $28 per share in cash for Ambrx, roughly a 100% premium to the latter’s recent trading price.
