Each program is supported by biomarker-driven patient stratification strategies to optimize clinical development and therapeutic impact.
Headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, OnKure maintains research facilities in North America and Europe, fostering collaborations with academic institutions, contract research organizations and strategic industry partners. The company’s global footprint enables it to conduct multi-site clinical trials and to tap into specialized expertise in fibrosis biology, oncology drug development and translational sciences.
