Compliance & Ethics
At Verastem, we understand the importance of acting with urgency and integrity in everything we do. This enables us to deliver innovative therapies and real value for patients and their caregivers who are seeking solutions for the unmet needs in their cancer treatment. We are purposeful and unwavering in this approach, acting deliberately to positively impact patients and others and accomplishing our goal of making sure no patient with cancer runs out of options.
This is not just a priority – it is the foundation of our company.
By fostering a culture of integrity and maintaining an effective and impactful Ethics & Compliance Program, we build trust with all our stakeholders, including patients, their caregivers, the healthcare professionals who treat them, as well as our employees and investors. This trust drives us to be influential in our industry, presenting ideas in ways that are ethical, well-reasoned, and inspire others to collaborate with us to create innovative solutions.
Our expectation is that everyone working at Verastem, including our contractors, consultants and business partners, will be insightful in the performance of their duties, finding connections that others haven’t explored and finding deep meaning in our search to forge the best path forward. We do this ethically and in compliance with both the letter and spirit of the laws, rules and regulations that govern our industry.
Our commitment to integrity is integrated into every aspect of our business activities. Everyone at Verastem is encouraged to foster beneficial and interdependent relationships to accelerate progress. Doing so creates a culture where everyone is empowered to speak up about potential issues and possible solutions. We make ethical, compliant decisions by proactively identifying and addressing potential risks. This can only happen if we make ethical decisions at every turn.
