About Puma Biotechnology
Puma Biotechnology, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company with a focus on
the development and commercialization of innovative products to enhance
cancer care. The Company in-licenses the global development and
commercialization rights to three drug candidates — PB272 (neratinib
(oral)), PB272 (neratinib (intravenous)) and PB357. NERLYNX™ (neratinib)
is approved for commercial use by prescription in the United States as
extended adjuvant therapy for early stage HER2-positive breast cancer
following adjuvant trastuzumab-based therapy and is marketed as NERLYNX.
Neratinib is a potent irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor that blocks
signal transduction through the epidermal growth factor receptors, HER1,
HER2 and HER4. Currently, the Company is primarily focused on the
commercialization of NERLYNX and the continued development of its other
advanced drug candidates directed at the treatment of HER2-positive
breast cancer. The Company believes that NERLYNX has clinical
application in the potential treatment of several other cancers that
over-express or have a mutation in HER2.
