Rigel Pharmaceuticals

Rigel is a clinical-stage drug development company that discovers and develops novel, small-molecule drugs for the treatment of inflammatory diseases and cancer, as well as viral and metabolic diseases. Our goal is to file one new investigational new drug (IND) application in a significant indication each year. We have achieved this goal since 2002. Our pioneering research focuses on intracellular signaling pathways and related targets that are critical to disease mechanisms. Rigel’s productivity has resulted in strategic collaborations with large pharmaceutical partners to develop and market our product candidates. We have product development programs in inflammatory/autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, thrombocytopenia and asthma, as well as oncology. R788 is our lead product candidate. We initiated Phase 2 efficacy studies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in 2H'06 and in immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) in 1H'07. We expect results for these two studies in 2007. Rigel also initiated a Phase 2 study in lymphoma in 1H'07.
