Phathom Pharma Summer Intern - Medical Affairs

Phathom Pharmaceuticals is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel treatments for gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. We have licensed the exclusive rights in the United States, Europe, and Canada to vonoprazan, a first-in-class potassium-competitive acid blocker (PCAB). Phathom currently markets VOQUEZNA® (vonoprazan) tablets for the treatment of Erosive GERD and associated heartburn in adults, as well as VOQUEZNA® TRIPLE PAK® (vonoprazan tablets, amoxicillin capsules, clarithromycin tablets) and VOQUEZNA® DUAL PAK® (vonoprazan tablets, amoxicillin capsules) for the treatment of H. pyloriinfection in adults. In addition, the company is actively investigating the use of vonoprazan as a treatment for Non-Erosive GERD, with a New Drug Application currently under review by the FDA and a separate Phase 3 trial planned to initiate in 2024.
