.Amgen signed their South San Francisco lease nearly three years ago. Its site will focus on the development of medicines in three core treatment areas: cancer, inflammatory disease and cardiometabolic disorders.
Amgen, the biopharmaceutical company, is opening its second-largest research and development facility in South San Francisco's Oyster Point, representing a significant pharma footprint in the Bay Area.
At nine-stories tall, the 245,000-square-foot facility will house 650 employees across 24 functions. The site also features open work spaces and modular labs, structures that are created with as many moveable furnishings as possible. These design choices are meant to encourage greater collaboration and teamwork.

A company spokesperson said Amgen was not disclosing costs associated with the facility.
