OSI Pharmaceuticals

OSI Pharmaceuticals is committed to “shaping medicine and changing lives” by developing and commercializing high-quality and novel pharmaceutical products that extend life or improve the quality of life for patients with cancer, diabetes, and obesity. We specialize in the discovery and development of innovative molecular targeted therapies that address significant unmet medical needs, and strive to turn pioneering science into breakthrough therapies for patients suffering from life-threatening diseases. Our Oncology business is anchored by our flagship product, Tarceva® (erlotinib), a small molecule inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor, or EGFR, that was first discovered and developed by OSI. Tarceva is the only EGFR inhibitor to have demonstrated the ability to improve overall survival in advanced non-small cell lung cancer and advanced pancreatic cancer. Behind Tarceva, we have an emerging oncology pipeline of molecular targeted therapies in clinical and late-stage pre-clinical development. Our R & D strengths include high-throughput screening, chemical libraries, medicinal and combinational chemistry and automated drug profiling technology platforms. Our diabetes and obesity R & D programs are conducted through Prosidion Limited, our U.K. subsidiary dedicated to the discovery and development of novel therapies for metabolic diseases, particularly type 2 diabetes and obesity. (OSI) Prosidion has an emerging diabetes and obesity clinical pipeline with several innovative drug candidates that have progressed into clinical development. OSI has a dedicated team of approximately 500 research and development, regulatory, sales, marketing, commercial, and business professionals. We are headquartered in Long Island, New York with facilities in Colorado, New Jersey and the United Kingdom. Our Flagship Product Tarceva (erlotinib) is a small molecule human epidermal growth factor type 1/epidermal growth factor receptor (HER1/EGFR) inhibitor which is currently marketed for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer and pancreatic cancer. Products and Pipeline A key to our long-term success resides in our ability to continue to fund our deep and innovative pipeline, both to enhance the Tarceva franchise and seed high-quality research programs in oncology, diabetes and obesity.
