LONDON — AstraZeneca said Tuesday it would acquire Fusion Pharmaceuticals in a deal worth more than $2 billion, picking up a company focused on the booming area of targeted radiation therapies for cancer.

AstraZeneca will pay $2 billion in cash upfront for Fusion, a price that at $21 a share is nearly double Fusion’s closing share price on Monday. If certain regulatory milestones are met, AstraZeneca will pay another $3 a share, or roughly $400 million.

Fusion specializes in developing radiopharmaceuticals, also known as radioconjugates or radioligands, which deliver radiation directly to tumors, guided by particular markers on cancer cells.
