Fulcrum Therapeutics Inc

Fulcrum Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing small molecules to improve the lives of patients with rare hematological disorders. The Company's lead clinical program is pociredir, a small molecule designed to increase expression of fetal hemoglobin for the treatment of sickle cell disease (SCD). It uses proprietary technology to identify drug targets that can modulate gene expression to treat the known root cause of genetically defined diseases. In addition to its product candidates, the Company has developed a discovery approach to systematically identify and validate cellular drug targets that can potentially modulate gene expression to treat known root causes of genetically defined rare diseases. It also presented preclinical data for FTX-6274, an oral EED inhibitor candidate, demonstrating tumor growth inhibition in castration resistant prostate cancer models.
