Why Foghorn Therapeutics (FHTX) Stock Is Exploding Higher

Author: Henry Khederian | February 08, 2024 12:48pm


Foghorn Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:FHTX) shares are trading higher by 44.8% to $4.52 during Thursday’s session after the company announced that Eli Lilly And Co (NYSE:LLY) has chosen FHD-909, an oral BRM selective inhibitor, for clinical development.

Foghorn says the drug targets BRG1 mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Selective BRM inhibition is a promising strategy in cancer research, particularly for tumor types like NSCLC with BRG1 mutations, as it can cause tumor cell death while sparing healthy cells. T

This development follows a collaboration between Foghorn and Lilly established in December 2021, aiming to create novel oncology medicines. The collaboration includes co-development and co-commercialization agreements, along with utilizing Foghorn’s Gene Traffic Control platform for discovery programs.

Preclinical data will be presented at upcoming scientific conferences.
