EISAI TO PRESENT NEW RESEARCH ON ONCOLOGY PRODUCT PORTFOLIO AND PIPELINE AT 48th ASCO ANNUAL MEETING

°®¶¹´«Ã½. (Headquarters: Tokyo, President & CEO: Haruo Naito, “Eisai”) announced today that 15 abstracts highlighting new study results will be presented during the 48th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), taking place in Chicago from June 1 to June 5, 2012. Presentations will include results from biomarker research with lenvatinib (generic name; VEGF Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor/ Multi Kinase Inhibitor) and the first Phase I studies with E7050 (c-Met and Eph Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor/ Multi-Kinase Inhibitor), both of which were discovered and are being developed in-house.

Eisai positions oncology as key franchise area. These studies highlight the company’s current oncology product portfolio strategy and research accomplishments in this field.

Eisai seeks to achieve greater levels of innovation in oncology research through its ability to develop remarkable therapeutic hypotheses based on human biology and modern chemistry capabilities that enable it to translate these hypotheses into viable compounds, and thereby make further contributions to address the diversified needs of, and increase the benefits provided to, patients and their families as well as healthcare providers.

The following Eisai abstracts are accepted for presentation at this year’s ASCO meeting:
