Company Overview

MBX Biosciences, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing peptide therapies for endocrine and metabolic disorders. The company uses its Precision Endocrine Peptide platform to design engineered peptides intended to provide targeted activity, extended duration and more consistent treatment effects.

MBX’s lead program, MBX 1416, is an investigational long-acting parathyroid hormone receptor agonist being developed as a potential replacement therapy for people with hypoparathyroidism, a disorder in which the body produces insufficient parathyroid hormone. The company’s broader pipeline is focused on additional peptide-based medicines for endocrine diseases with significant unmet treatment needs.

Headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, MBX Biosciences is advancing its programs through clinical development and regulatory evaluation. Its therapies are intended for patients in markets where endocrine disorders are treated with approved pharmaceutical products, although specific commercial geographies will depend on future clinical results and regulatory authorizations.
