Curis, Inc. Announces Key Management Promotions

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Curis, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRIS), a therapeutic drug development company focusing on cancer, neurological and dermatological disease indications, today announced recent promotions within its management team infrastructure. The changes were made to better align the management structure with Curis’ ongoing strategy of deemphasizing early stage discovery research and seeking instead to develop proprietary later stage preclinical and, ultimately, clinical assets. The first such later stage program is a platform of proprietary cancer programs that target multiple validated cancer pathways. This platform is currently in preclinical testing and Curis expects to select the first lead clinical candidate in early 2007 and file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application during the second half of 2007.
