Crinetics is here for endocrine disease patients who are eager to find therapies that provide effective disease control and more simplicity in their lives.
People with endocrine diseases need therapies that let them break through their disease, an area the company frames as underserved by current care.
Crinetics is building an endocrine-rooted pharmaceutical pipeline, including an oral SST2 agonist (paltusotine), an oral ACTH antagonist (atumelnant), and a non-peptide drug conjugate, developed through its own 'Discovery Engine.'
The page emphasizes being 'singularly focused' as a premier endocrine-rooted global pharmaceutical company, with a proprietary Discovery Engine driving its pipeline (and notes it is being acquired by Vertex Pharmaceuticals).
Founded by Scott Struthers, PhD; Vertex Pharmaceuticals has agreed to acquire the San Diego company.
