Valeant Pharmaceuticals (VRX - Get Report) announced late Thursday a tentative deal to acquire the assets of Dendreon -- mostly its prostate-cancer vaccine Provenge and manufacturing facilities -- for $296 million in cash.

Dendreon filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in November because Provenge sales of around $300 million annually were not sufficient to generate profits or repay $620 million in convertible debt due next year. The bankruptcy wiped out Dendreon's equity shareholders. If the Valeant deal goes through, even Dendreon's creditors will be only partially repaid.
