Confirmed: Valeant to Buy Dendreon

Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc will scoop up bankrupt cancer vaccine maker Dendreon Corp, after no additional qualified bids came forward by Tuesday's deadline, Valeant said.

A potential buyer dropped from the bidding process, three sources close to the sale told Reuters earlier.

Valeant, of Laval, Quebec, will get Seattle-based Dendreon's Provenge cancer treatment and other assets for $400 million in cash.
