Happy Holidays from all of us at Flare Therapeutics! ✨ ❄️ Our team recently gathered to reflect on an incredible year of collaboration, advancement of our discovery programs and lead clinical-stage program FX-909 and a strategic discovery collaboration with Roche. As we wind down for the winter break, we’re filled with gratitude for the accomplishments we’ve made together and look forward to 2025 in which we #BlazeNewPaths!

Trailblazing the path to drugging transcription factors to discover precision medicines for cancer & other disease areas
About us
Our team ‘brings it’ every day for one mission: to conquer transcription factors and create cutting-edge medicines. Flare Therapeutics is lighting up new frontiers in biotech by tackling transcription factors – an elusive protein class long considered “undruggable.” Leveraging our proteomic and mass spectrometry platform, proprietary electrophilic compound library and deep expertise, we are unlocking the potential of these critical proteins to address unmet needs in oncology and beyond. Our lead program, FX-909, is a first-in-class investigational orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of PPARG, a master regulator of the luminal lineage in advanced urothelial cancer that is currently in a Phase I study. We have also advanced a second program with a differentiated mechanism for prostate cancer entering the Investigational New Drug (IND)-enabling stage, alongside a pipeline of earlier-stage programs targeting transcription factors involved in oncology and other therapeutic areas.
