  Breakthroughs at Blueprint Medicines

  Richard G. Hamermesh, Kathy Giusti and Susie L. Ma

  Precision medicine company Blueprint Medicines was building a successful track record for bringing drug therapies to market 40% faster than average. The company had spent $40 million dollars and two years building a compound library that became its drug development engine. Blueprint’s drug development strategy was twofold—it focused on creating a single drug compound for multiple disease indications, while at the same time developing drugs to track a disease through its progression. The company’s goal was to become a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company that could move from drug discovery to development to marketing. But it was increasingly challenging to prioritize and manage programs, personnel and partnerships.
