“2017 is poised to be an eventful year for TESARO as we prepare for four product launches across the United States and Europe,” said Lonnie Moulder, CEO of TESARO. “2016 was an important year for the Company, highlighted by the landmark NOVA trial results for niraparib, which were published in the New England Journal of Medicine and presented in a presidential session at the European Society of Medical Oncology annual meeting.

Looking beyond ovarian and breast cancer, we aim to finalize our registration program for niraparib in lung cancer in the first half of this year.
