Crinetics Pharmaceuticals develops treatment candidates for rare disorders of the endocrine system and related tumors, working at the clinical trial stage rather than selling approved products. Its most advanced candidate, Paltusotine, is a pill taken by mouth that targets a specific somatostatin receptor and has finished Phase III testing for acromegaly, alongside completed Phase II work in carcinoid syndrome and nonfunctional neuroendocrine tumors.
Beyond its lead candidate, the company is testing two other oral compounds in early clinical trials. CRN04777 acts on a different somatostatin receptor and is being studied in Phase I for congenital hyperinsulinism, while CRN04894 blocks a hormone linked to adrenal function and is in Phase I trials for Cushing's disease and congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Its work centers on developing these therapies through clinical stages toward possible future approval.
Crinetics Pharmaceuticals was founded in 2008 and is headquartered in San Diego, California. Its shares are listed on the NASDAQ under the ticker CRNX.
