Crinetics Pharmaceuticals Inc.
Products
Oral SST2-selective small-molecule agonist (clinical-stage)
Clinical-stage orally administered small-molecule selective for somatostatin receptor subtype 2 intended to modulate hormone pathways as an alternative to injectable therapies for acromegaly and carcinoid syndrome.
Oral ACTH (MC2R) antagonist (clinical-stage)
Orally administered antagonist of ACTH signaling developed to modulate ACTH-driven cortisol production for conditions such as congenital adrenal hyperplasia and ACTH-dependent Cushing's syndrome.
Non-peptide drug conjugate for receptor-expressing tumors
Preclinical candidate non-peptide drug conjugate designed to deliver a cytotoxic payload to tumors expressing a target receptor, intended for neuroendocrine tumors and other receptor-positive malignancies.
Receptor-targeted radiotherapeutic development platform
Platform approach to develop targeted radiotherapeutic agents intended to deliver radionuclide therapy to tumor-specific targets across multiple solid tumor types.
Pipeline of receptor-subtype selective small-molecule modulators
Clinical and preclinical candidates targeting additional receptor subtypes developed for indication-specific endocrine and metabolic disorders.
