About Frontier Medicines
Frontier Medicines, located in South San Francisco, CA and Boston, MA, is a precision medicine company that has pioneered a powerful discovery and development platform designed to generate medicines against disease-causing proteins previously considered undruggable. We are deploying our technologies in chemoproteomics, covalent drug discovery, and machine learning to develop a pipeline of groundbreaking medicines against the most important drivers of disease. Our lead program targets both the activated and inactive forms of KRAS G12C, a validated driver in a number of cancers that until recently has been undruggable. Our pipeline embodies our vision of bolding advancing science to defeat disease, starting with cancer.
