About SNX-5422
SNX-5422 is a chemically unique, orally
active Hsp90 inhibitor that has provided durable clinical responses in
open label trials in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and
neuroendocrine tumors (NET). The potential of SNX-5422 in hematologic
cancers is currently being explored in a chronic lymphocytic leukemia
(CLL) open label clinical trial (clinicaltrials.gov ID#NCT02973399).
With approximately 200 patients treated to date, SNX-5422 has a
well-established safety profile that supports studying it in combination
with existing approved drugs in a variety of clinical settings.

Esanex is a clinical-stage company with new
insights into Heat Shock Proteins as an important cancer target. Our
lead program, SNX-5422, has shown durable clinical responses in
rationally-designed combination studies in patients with non-small cell
lung cancer and neuroendocrine tumors. We are also advancing SNX-5422 in
select hematological tumors, including CLL. www.esanexpharma.com
