Maze Therapeutics

Maze Therapeutics is a biotechnology company based in South San Francisco, California, focused on developing innovative medicines that leverage the effects of rare genetic variants to address unmet medical needs. Founded in 2017 and originally known as Modulus Therapeutics, the company utilizes its proprietary Compass platform to identify genetic variants linked to diseases and map them to the biological pathways that drive these conditions in specific patient populations. By integrating large-scale human genetics data and functional genomics with various drug discovery methods, Maze Therapeutics aims to reveal modifier genes that offer protective benefits. This approach enhances the understanding of target biology and informs the development of novel therapies, ultimately enabling pharmaceutical companies to create effective treatments.
