    Paradigm Shift Therapeutics (PSTx) was founded by biopharmaceutical industry veterans with the knowledge and passion to change drug development and commercialization

    PSTx was launched in January 2014 by Teresa Burgess, PhD and Kate Farrell, PhD through an ongoing collaboration with Dr. David Roberts at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) focused on developing CD47-targeting inhibitors-a novel immune-checkpoint target with the potential to radically change treatment for cancer patients. Thomas Miller, PhD joined PSTx as a full partner in September 2014. Our public-private partnership with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) was expanded in September 2015 to launch a drug screening program with the National Center for Accelerating Translational Sciences (NCATS).
