Black Diamond Therapeutics is a next-wave cancer precision medicine company. Black Diamond pioneered the development of selective medicines for patients with genetically defined cancers driven by oncogenes activated by allosteric mutations. Using its mutation, allostery, and pharmacology (MAP) computational and discovery platform, Black Diamond is uncovering new ways to functionally assess the mutational landscape of individual oncogenes – to discover and validate new targets and develop novel approaches to creating highly selective therapeutics. Black Diamond was founded by David M. Epstein, Ph.D., Elizabeth Buck, Ph.D., and Versant Ventures, and is the first new company to emerge from Versant`s Ridgeline Discovery Engine in Basel, Switzerland.

Corcept Therapeutics Incorporated, a pharmaceutical company, engages in the discovery, development, and commercialization of drugs for the treatment of metabolic, oncologic, and psychiatric disorders in the United States. The company focuses on disorders that are associated with a steroid hormone called cortisol. It offers Korlym (mifepristone) tablets as a once-daily oral medication for the treatment of hyperglycemia secondary to hypercortisolism in adult patients with endogenous Cushing’s syndrome, who have type 2 diabetes mellitus or glucose intolerance, and have failed surgery or are not candidates for surgery. The company is also developing Korlym’s active ingredient, which is in a Phase 1/2 trial in combination with the chemotherapy drug eribulin (Halaven) to treat patients with GR-positive triple-negative breast cancer, a form of cancer with a particularly poor prognosis; and CORT 125134, a proprietary, selective GR antagonist that is in a Phase 1 clinical study to assess its safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in healthy human volunteers. In addition, it discovers and develops three series of novel selective GR-II antagonists. The company has research and development agreements with Argenta Discovery Limited and Sygnature Discovery Limited.
