ICOS Corp. (ICOS) specializes in protein-based and small molecule therapeutics. The company combines its capabilities in molecular, cellular and structural biology, high throughput drug screening, medicinal chemistry and genomics to develop innovative products with commercial potential. Since its inception, ICOS has focused its research and development efforts on both protein-based and small molecule therapeutics. The company has identified novel product candidates and obtained patents for these candidates. ICOS believes that proteins and small molecules will be primary areas for pharmaceutical development for the foreseeable future, particularly as genomic research identifies novel disease targets. The company plans to continue its discovery and development efforts in these areas, emphasizing diseases and medical conditions for which current therapies are substandard or unavailable and for which the market opportunities are large. As of Dec. 31, 2000, ICOS owned or exclusively licensed 131 U.S. patents and had 118 patent applications pending filed on its own behalf or on behalf of its joint ventures or exclusive licensors. When appropriate, ICOS also seeks foreign patent protection and as of Dec. 31, 2000, the company owned or exclusively licensed 82 foreign patents.
