This approval allows for the marketing of Cabometyx (cabozantinib) in this indication in all 28 member states of the European Union, Norway and Iceland and triggers a $50M milestone payment to Exelixis ($46M was recognized as collaboration revenue in Q1).
CABOMETYX was first approved in Europe for second-line RCC in September 2016.
