Fulcrum Therapeutics is a “clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing small molecules to improve the lives of patients with rare hematological disorders[.]”
On June 1, 2026, after market close, Fulcrum Therapeutics announced in a press release “the discontinuation of its pociredir program for the treatment of SCD [(sickle cell disease).]” The Company stated that the “meeting minutes from recent end-of-phase interactions with the [U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”)]” “reflected heightened FDA concerns regarding pociredir's benefit-risk profile in SCD, stemming from an unexpectedly high rate of secondary hematologic malignancies observed with Tazverik® (tazemetostat), another PRC2 inhibitor, which was withdrawn from the global market in March 2026.” After submitting further information, the FDA “concluded that any pharmacological intervention targeting the PRC2 complex carries equivalent malignancy risk regardless of the specific subunit engaged.” As a result, the Company has “no viable regulatory path forward for further clinical development of pociredir.”
Following this news, the price of Fulcrum Therapeutics stock declined from a closing price on June 1, 2026 of $6.42 per share to close at $3.14 per share on June 2, 2026, a decline of $3.28 per share, or by 51.09%.
