About Us 

At Keros, our mission is to deliver significant clinical benefit to patients suffering from hematological, pulmonary and cardiovascular disorders. With a focus on developing differentiated product candidates that are designed to alter transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) signaling, we aim to target the pathways critical for the growth, repair and maintenance of a number of tissue and organ systems. Targeting such pathways has been clinically proven to elicit meaningful improvements in blood cells, blood vessels and heart tissue. We believe our product candidates have the potential to unlock the full therapeutic benefits of modulating the TGF-β superfamily and provide disease-modifying benefit to patients.
 

KER-050 and KER-047, which form the backbone of our hematology franchise, are being developed to treat ineffective hematopoiesis and functional iron deficiency, respectively, in both myelodysplastic syndromes and myelofibrosis. KER-012, our lead product candidate in our pulmonary and cardiovascular franchise, is currently being developed for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension. Furthermore, we are leveraging our expertise in TGF-β biology to fuel our research engine with the goal of bringing additional innovative treatment options to patients with diseases of high unmet medical need.

 

We take our mission personally.

Helping people by developing novel product candidates is more than just meeting a need or conducting a business transaction. It’s more than science for science sake. Improving human health changes the world. At Keros, we’re making progress every day toward a better tomorrow. If you’re driven to be a changemaker, Keros is the place for you to make a positive impact every day.

“Changing the world—for different people that means different things. If you are an architect, you want to change the world by creating buildings that are useful, beautiful, or innovative. I’m a scientist. For me, it’s about changing human life—it’s about how science can impact patients’ lives.“

—Jas, CEO
 

We love our work.

Yes, it’s full of challenges and roadblocks, but there’s no job we’d rather do. The only way to achieve success is to work together. Keros is an exciting team at an exciting time—Full of passionate, curious, diverse, and innovative people who are rewriting the rules on how to create a successful biopharmaceutical company. Whatever your role, there’s room to grow. Whatever your interest, there’s room to pursue it.

 

It’s about the science. 

Keros is a remarkable company with a fantastic team, terrific benefits, and a bright future, but in the end the science is what drives us. Sound and daring science is our foundation—driving discoveries that we hope we will eventually help patients live better lives. The world is full of noise, and science is no different. Our work is to sift through that noise to find the critical data that makes all the noise suddenly make sense—That’s how we meet our mission.
