Headquartered in Florham Park, New Jersey, the company operates as a clinical-stage and commercial organization dedicated to addressing significant unmet medical needs in gastroenterology. Phathom's lead product is VOQUEZNA (vonoprazan), a potassium-competitive acid blocker approved by the FDA for treating erosive esophagitis and relieving heartburn associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The company acquired U.S. rights to vonoprazan through an exclusive license agreement with Takeda Pharmaceutical Company.

With approximately 200 employees, Phathom maintains a specialized commercial infrastructure focused on gastroenterologists and primary care physicians. The company continues to explore additional indications and formulations for vonoprazan while building its commercial capabilities in the competitive gastrointestinal pharmaceutical market.
