The company is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts and currently employs 77 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2018-03-29. The Company’s most advanced clinical program, bezuclastinib (CGT9486), is a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is designed to potently inhibit the KIT D816V mutation as well as other mutations in KIT exon 17. KIT D816V is responsible for driving systemic mastocytosis, a serious disease caused by unchecked proliferation of mast cells. In addition to bezuclastinib, the Company is developing a portfolio of novel targeted therapies to help patients fighting serious, genetically driven diseases. The firm has initiated APEX, a Phase II clinical study of bezuclastinib in patients with AdvSM. APEX is an open-label, global, multicenter study evaluating the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic profiles of bezuclastinib. The company also initiated Peak, a randomized, open-label, global Phase III clinical trial.
