Company Overview

Foghorn Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of novel epigenetic therapies for cancer. The company leverages its proprietary Targeted Protein Discovery Platform to identify and design small-molecule inhibitors that modulate chromatin regulatory proteins involved in tumor growth and survival. By targeting the mechanisms that control gene expression, Foghorn seeks to address unmet needs in oncology through precision medicine.

The company’s lead candidate, FHD-286, is a selective inhibitor of variant SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes and is currently being evaluated in Phase 1 clinical trials for patients with solid tumors harboring specific SMARCA2 and SMARCA4 alterations. In addition to FHD-286, Foghorn maintains a pipeline of preclinical programs aimed at other chromatin targets, with the goal of advancing multiple development candidates into the clinic over the coming years.

Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Foghorn Therapeutics was established with support from leading life-science investors. The company operates research and development activities in the United States and collaborates with academic and industry partners to accelerate the translation of its discoveries into potential therapeutic options for patients worldwide.

Under the leadership of President and Chief Executive Officer Robert Mulroy, PhD, Foghorn has built a multidisciplinary team with expertise in epigenetics, medicinal chemistry, structural biology and translational medicine. The company’s strategic vision emphasizes innovation in chromatin biology and a commitment to developing differentiated treatments for oncology.
