    "We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Sandler to Mirati," said Mr. Meek. "His extensive experience in drug development, including clinical development experience with adagrasib, will augment our executive leadership at this pivotal time for Mirati. We are fast approaching our first potential launch in the U.S. with adagrasib as well as other transformational milestones."

    Most recently, Dr. Sandler was president and global head of oncology for Zai Lab where he led global oncology development for the company. He joins Mirati with over 30 years of oncology and drug development experience across industry and academia. Previously, Dr. Sandler was the senior vice president and global head of oncology product development at Genentech, a member of the Roche Group. He has also held academic roles at Oregon Health and Science University, Indiana University and Vanderbilt University.

    "Chuck has been a leader and a primary architect behind the impressive advancements and progress Mirati has made. We are grateful for his leadership, commitment and vision over the last decade, effectively founding Mirati and positioning us for success ahead of our potential first commercialized product," said Mr. Meek. "We are fortunate to be in a position for Chuck and Alan to have a smooth transition.  We are thrilled to be able to continue working with him in his future capacity as a strategic advisor and member of the Board of Directors."  

    "The opportunity to recruit and work with such an accomplished team to develop several potentially best-in-class treatment options for patients with cancer has been the pinnacle of my career," said Chuck Baum, M.D., Ph.D., founder, president and head of research and development, Mirati Therapeutics, Inc. "I look forward to continuing my involvement with Mirati as a member of the Board of Directors supporting and celebrating the company's future success."

    Dr. Sandler and Dr. Baum will work closely together to ensure a smooth and efficient transition into the second quarter of 2023.
