Cubist Pharmaceuticals

Cubist Pharmaceuticals Incorporated is a drug company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel drugs to treat infections. Daptomycin, the Company's in-licensed lead product, is a unique agent with bactericidal activity that addresses the critical need for new antibiotics with potent activity against life threatening infections. Cubist Pharmaceuticals began Phase III clinical trials of intravenous daptomycin for complicated skin and soft tissue infections and also began a Phase II clinical trial for bacteremia in February of 1999. Cubist is also applying its VITA-TM- technology to validate unique targets and to build assays to identify additional novel compounds with a broad spectrum of activity against life-threatening infectious organisms such as methicillin resistant STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS (MRSA) and vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE).
