% of holdings sold = shares sold ÷ (shares sold + all holdings the insider reported on that Form 4, direct and through trusts).
Insider type follows Cohen, Malloy & Pomorski (Journal of Finance, 2012). An insider who traded the stock in the same calendar month in each of the past three years is a routine trader; one who traded in each of those years without such a pattern is an opportunistic trader. In their study, trades by opportunistic insiders predicted future returns and trades by routine insiders did not. Counts open-market purchases and sales only (SEC Form 4 codes P and S) by that insider in that company. Not investment advice.

Key Strengths & Strategy (as disclosed to the SEC)
- Our science enables us to potentially make a big difference in the lives of patients.
Partnerships
- In October 2023, we entered into a clinical trial collaboration and supply agreement with Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ("BMS") to evaluate mezigdomide, BMS' proprietary investigational cereblon E3 ligase modulator (CELMoD) agent, in combination with selinexor in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma progressing after T-cell immunotherapies.
- Further, in connection with the XPORT-EC-042 Trial, we entered into a global collaboration with Foundation Medicine, Inc. to develop FoundationOne®CDx, a tissue-based next generation sequencing test to identify and enroll patients whose tumors are TP53 wild-type.
Legal & Regulatory Risks (Item 1A, quoted)
- We, or our collaborators, may not be able to file for marketing approvals and may not receive necessary approvals to commercialize our or their products in any market.
- We, or our collaborators, may seek approval from the FDA or comparable foreign regulatory authorities to use accelerated development pathways for our product candidates.
- We may not be able to successfully and timely complete these post-approval requirements, obtain an extension, if needed, or complete any other post-marketing confirmatory study as required to maintain approval or achieve full approval of our products.
- The FDA and comparable foreign regulatory authorities may also impose requirements for costly surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of an approved drug.
