Boston, USA-based Verastem Oncology (Nasdaq: VSTM) today announced the appointment of Matthew Ros as chief operating officer (COO).

In his role, Mr Ros will report to Dan Paterson, president and chief executive, and will serve on the company’s executive leadership team.

“We are thrilled to welcome Matt to Verastem Oncology at an important time as we prepare for a mid-2025 product launch and the transition into a commercial-stage company, while we continue to advance our clinical programs,” said Dan Paterson, adding: “Matt is an accomplished biopharmaceutical executive with extensive experience driving business transformation. His expertise will drive invaluable operational excellence as we prepare to launch a potential first-in-class treatment combination for patients with low-grade serous ovarian cancer, a rare cancer with no approved treatments specifically for this disease, and simultaneously progress programs and partnerships to address cancers driven by the RAS/MAPK-pathway that often lack treatment options.”
