 PROFILE
This Axys wants to be the global power in drug discovery. Axys Pharmaceuticals tests innumerable small-molecule chemical compounds in the search for new drug leads. Targeting cancer, the firm takes these leads through all stages of development. In addition to operating its own oncology program, it partners with such drugmakers as Bayer, Aventis, and Merck to develop treatments for chronic conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, and inflammatory bowel disease. To help fund its drug development activities, Axys holds stakes in bioag company Akkadix (about 45%) and chemical library developer Discovery Partners International (about one-third). Genome mapper Celera Genomics plans to buy the company.

 COMPETITION
Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (CTIC)
