Array BioPharma is a U.S.-based, clinical stage, publicly traded pharmaceutical company founded in Boulder, Colorado[1] (NASDAQ:ARRY)[2] that is included in the NASDAQ Biotechnology Index.[3]
The company has engaged in collaborations with Pfizer and Merck to study several cancer targeting drug combinations.[4][5] In July 2013 the company partnered with Loxo Oncology to develop cancer drugs[6], in November 2015 the company partnered with Pierre Fabre[7] and the company also partnered with Ono Pharmaceutical in March 2016 to test the combination of binimetinib and encorafenib while retaining commercialization rights in the U.S. and other markets.[8][9]
In 2017 it spun out one of its programs into a subsidiary called Yarra; the asset was a molecule called ARRY-797 that was in a Phase II trial for cardiomyopathy.[1]
In March 2018 Array sued AstraZeneca for breach of contract, saying that AZ owed it a 12% royalty on a portion of the $1.6 billion upfront payment that Merck had paid to AZ in a deal for selumetinib, which Array said it had licensed to AZ in 2003.[10]
In June 2018, the combination of Braftovi (encorafenib) and Mektovi (binimetinib) were approved by the FDA for the treatment of people with unresectable or metastatic BRAF V600E or V600K mutation-positive melanoma.[11]
