Description

Who We Are:
At Xenon Pharmaceuticals (

NASDAQ:
XENE), we are committed to providing a brighter future for patients suffering from neurological disorders.

Our employees are smart, passionate, dedicated, and driven by their incredibly important work to discover, develop, and deliver innovative medicines for patients in need.

We are looking for great people who thrive in a respectful, collaborative, inclusive, and productive culture to join the Xenon team.

What We Do:
We are advancing an exciting pipeline of neurology-focused therapies, with a focus on commercializing novel treatments for epilepsy.

Building upon the positive results and compelling data from our XEN1101 Phase 2b "X-TOLE" study in adult patients with focal epilepsy, our XEN1101 Phase 3 program includes studies in adult patients with focal onset seizures and primary generalized tonic clonic seizures.

In addition, XEN1101 is being evaluated as a treatment for major depressive disorder in both a company-sponsored Phase 2 clinical trial, as well as an investigator-led proof-of-concept study.

Xenon's proprietary, pediatric formulation of ezogabine, XEN496, is being studied in a Phase 3 clinical trial in young patients with KCNQ2-DEE, a rare and severe form of childhood epilepsy.

We are also proud of the leading-edge science coming out of our discovery labs, where many innovative, early-stage research programs are underway.

In addition to these proprietary programs, our pipeline includes clinical-stage partnered programs with valued collaborators.
