Plexxikons platform enables the design of highly selective and targeted medicines, supporting the companys broader strategy to develop personalized medicines.In 2005, Plexxikon scientists discovered ZELBORAF® (vemurafenib) tablets, formerly known as PLX4032, and initiated the first clinical trial in 2006. Together with its partner Roche, Plexxikon co-developed this mutation-specific medicine, in less than five years. A companion diagnostic used to determine ZELBORAF treatment eligibility was approved at the same time.
