About Varian Biopharmaceuticals, Inc.

Varian Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. ("VarianBio") is private precision oncology company developing novel therapeutics for the treatment of cancer. Precision oncology, whereby physicians use DNA testing to look for genetic mutations of the unique tumors, holds the promise of more targeted treatment recommendations with therapies designed to fight specific tumor types. Varian Bio is developing a best-in-class high-potency, specific atypical protein kinase C iota ("aPKCi") inhibitor for the treatment of various tumor types in multiple formulations.
