WHAT IF WE COULD CREATE PRECISION ANTI-CANCER MEDICINES THAT TARGET TUMOR CELLS?

That’s the goal at Epochal Precision Anti-Cancer Therapeutics (EPAT), our
Biologics Discovery Center located in Exton, Pennsylvania. EPAT is developing
precision oncology therapies by combining biologics expertise, Eisai’s unique
Antibody-Drug Conjugate (ADC) technology, proprietary payloads and bispecific
antibodies.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


OUR GOAL: IMPROVED RESULTS WITH FEWER SIDE EFFECTS

EPAT is focused on developing breakthrough therapies for patients living with a
variety of cancers, especially in these key areas of unmet medical need:

 * Women’s cancers, including gynecologic cancers and breast cancer
 * Stroma-rich malignant cancers, including pancreatic cancer, triple negative
   breast cancer and scirrhous gastric cancer


HERE’S HOW ADCS ATTACK CANCER CELLS WITH PRECISION.

ADCs are next-generation biopharmaceutical drugs consisting of targeted
molecular antibodies linked to anti-cancer drugs. An ADC is designed to target
and bind to specific cancer cells, then release the anti-cancer “warhead” into
the cancer cells to cause cell death (apoptosis), followed by “bystander
effects” on the surrounding cells. The hope behind this “smart” approach is both
to maximize bystander effects on the tumor microenvironment and to minimize
bystander effects on healthy cells , leading to fewer unintended side effects.
Our first ADC drug, MORAb-202, is now being developed in clinical phase 1 study
in Japan .

*Any ADC employing eribulin as a payload is investigational and has not been
approved by regulatory authorities. For more information on HALAVEN® (eribulin
mesylate), please see www.halaven.com or contact Eisai’s Medical Information
