Waltham, MA - USA
Job Summary
Fusion Pharmaceuticals a member of the AstraZeneca Groupis a clinical-stage oncology company focused on developing next-generationradioconjugates(RCs) as precision medicines. Fusion connects alpha particle emitting isotopes to various targeting molecules to selectively deliver the alpha emitting payloads to tumors. Fusions clinical portfolio includes but is not limited to: FPI-2265 targeting prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer currently in a Phase 2 trial; FPI-1434 targeting insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor currently in a Phase 1 trial; and FPI-2068 a bispecific IgG-based EGFR cMETtargetedradioconjugatecurrently in a Phase 1 trial.
Fusion has multiple other pipeline programs that will soon be entering into early FIH addition Fusion is pursuing combination programs between RCs and other therapeutic modalities including DNA Damage Response Inhibitors (DDRis) and immune-oncology agents. To support execution for these programs Fusion has a fully operational Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) compliantstate-of-the-artradioconjugatemanufacturing facility to meet supply demand for our growing pipeline of RCs.
