About us
Cogent Biosciences is a biotechnology company focused on developing novel precision therapies to treat a broad range of patients with unmet medical needs. Cogent’s lead program, bezuclastinib, is designed to selectively and potently inhibit exon 17 mutations found within the KIT receptor tyrosine kinase, including KIT D816V. KIT D816V is responsible for driving a rare and serious condition called Systemic Mastocytosis, and exon 17 mutations are also found in patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), a type of cancer with strong dependence on oncogenic KIT signaling. Bezuclastinib has already exhibited promising early clinical activity and safety in a Phase 1/2 trial in patients with advanced GIST and also has the potential to fill an unmet need for patients living with Systemic Mastocytosis.

Today we shared landmark top-line results from our Phase 3 PEAK trial in #GIST achieving 16.5 months median progression free survival with the bezuclastinb plus sunitinib combination compared to 9.2 months with sunitinib monotherapy. Our webcast will begin this morning at 8am ET. We invite you to join here: https://bit.ly/3Xlop6c and read the release: https://bit.ly/3JL9LlE. We are deeply grateful to the patients, families, and researchers whose participation in PEAK helped make this possible.

We were thrilled to share updated preclinical data from our potent and selective KRAS(ON) inhibitor at the 2025 EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium last week in Boston. We’re looking forward to moving this program towards the clinic, with a potential IND in 2026. Read the release http://bit.ly/43uJYVn and view the poster http://bit.ly/3JpkGRH.

The Cogent team proudly came together in purple to recognize International Mastocytosis & Mast Cell Diseases Awareness Day — a day that unites patients, advocates, caregivers, healthcare providers, researchers, and industry partners around a shared mission: increasing awareness and driving progress for these rare diseases. As part of our commitment to advancing research and bringing new treatment options to patients living with Systemic Mastocytosis, Cogent is honored to serve as a sponsor of this year’s campaign, “Be Informed, Be Connected.” Learn more about the 2025 global initiative and how it’s helping to educate and empower the mast cell disease community: https://lnkd.in/eY4E8McU

We’re thrilled to announce that the FDA has granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation for bezuclastinib in NonAdvanced Systemic Mastocytosis (NonAdvSM) patients previously treated with avapritinib as well as in patients with Smoldering Systemic Mastocytosis; populations with no currently approved standard of care. Our team has a busy few months ahead with PEAK top-line results expected in November and APEX top-line results expected in December 2025 as we prepare for filing our first New Drug Application by year-end.
