About Exelixis
Exelixis, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXEL) is a biopharmaceutical company committed
to the discovery, development and commercialization of new medicines
with the potential to improve care and outcomes for people with cancer.
Since its founding in 1994, three medicines discovered at Exelixis have
progressed through clinical development to receive regulatory approval.
Currently, Exelixis is focused on advancing cabozantinib, an inhibitor
of multiple tyrosine kinases including MET, AXL and VEGF receptors,
which has shown clinical anti-tumor activity in more than 20 forms of
cancer and is the subject of a broad clinical development program. Two
separate formulations of cabozantinib have received regulatory approval
to treat certain forms of kidney and thyroid cancer and are marketed for
those purposes as CABOMETYX™ tablets (U.S.) and COMETRIQ®
capsules (U.S. and EU), respectively. Another Exelixis-discovered
compound, COTELLIC™ (cobimetinib), a selective inhibitor of MEK, has
been approved in major territories including the United States and
European Union, and is being evaluated for further potential indications
by Roche and Genentech (a member of the Roche Group) under a
collaboration with Exelixis. For more information on Exelixis, please
