Biomea Fusion appointed one of its board members, Mick Hitchcock, to succeed Thomas Butler as its interim chief executive.
The change will help to ensure the company realizes its full potential developing a novel therapy for diabetes, it said Tuesday.
Hitchcock has served on the Redwood City, Calif., company's board since March 2021. His career in the pharmaceutical industry began in 1980. He has since held a variety of roles, including leadership positions, at companies including Bristol-Myers Squibb and Gilead Sciences.
As CEO, Hitchcock said he plans to continue the work he has done on Biomea's board. In addition to advancing late stage development efforts and preparing for regulatory engagement regarding Biomea's icovamenib, the company will work to develop its product candidates for the treatment of diabetes.
