Who We Are
Cogent Biosciences is a publicly traded biotechnology company developing real solutions to treat genetically driven diseases. With a focus on rational drug discovery and development, we are leveraging validated biology to advance precision therapies designed to address the true underlying drivers of disease and provide real hope for patients. Cogent’s lead therapeutic candidate, bezuclastinib (CGT9486), is a precision kinase inhibitor designed to selectively and potently inhibit the KIT D816V mutation. This mutation is responsible for driving a rare and serious condition called Systemic Mastocytosis (SM), which can severely impact many different tissues and organs in the body. We are also studying CGT9486 to treat advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), which have a strong dependence on oncogenic KIT signaling. We are currently enrolling two Phase 2 clinical trials for patients with SM and a global Phase 3 trial for GIST patients.
This position works with a fast-paced team in Drug Discovery and Development to provide scientific direction and strategy across the DMPK department by being an expert in the design, execution and interpretation of in vitro ADME and in vivo PK experiments. The successful candidate will utilize their strong knowledge of ADME/PK to collaborate cross-functionally with in-house medicinal chemistry, pharmacology and toxicology teams and outside CROs. Critical thinking, independence and innovative problem solving are hallmarks for the position. The ideal candidate will lead, mentor, motivate and manage a small team in addition to ownership of an oncology project.
