CMO (Fractional)

The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center

Job Title: CMO (Fractional)

Job Number: 37610

Location: Suite 400 San Carlos, CA 94070

Job Description

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a rare opportunity to join a company focused on advancing innovative intranasal therapeutics, an area with significant potential to improve patient experience, compliance, and therapeutic outcomes.

The organization is particularly interested in individuals who have previously worked on:

  • Intranasal drug delivery programs
  • Nose-to-brain delivery technologies
  • Inhaled therapeutics
  • Pulmonary or mucosal drug delivery platforms
  • CNS-targeted delivery systems
  • Novel metabolic or endocrine therapies

Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and lead overall clinical development strategy from preclinical studies through early-stage clinical development
  • Design and oversee Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical studies
  • Serve as Medical Monitor for preclinical and clinical programs
  • Lead regulatory strategy and interactions with health authorities
  • Author and review clinical documentation, study protocols, investigator materials, and regulatory submissions
  • Build and maintain relationships with key opinion leaders, investigators, and clinical advisors
  • Support business development, partnering, and investor-facing activities as the medical leader of the organization
  • Establish long-term clinical development plans and milestone-driven execution strategies

Required Skills

Required Qualifications

  • M.D. required
  • Board certification in Endocrinology, Internal Medicine, Neurology, Pulmonology, or a related specialty preferred
  • 10+ years of clinical development experience within biotechnology or pharmaceuticals
  • Experience designing and executing Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials
  • Previous experience serving as a Medical Monitor, Principal Investigator, Clinical Lead, or Chief Medical Officer
  • Strong understanding of global regulatory pathways and clinical development strategy

Preferred Qualifications

Strong preference will be given to candidates with experience in one or more of the following areas:

  • Intranasal therapeutics
  • Nasal spray drug products
  • Nose-to-brain delivery platforms
  • Inhaled drug development
  • Pulmonary delivery technologies
  • Drug-device combination products
  • Metabolic disease, obesity, diabetes, or endocrinology programs
  • CNS therapeutics
  • Emerging biotechnology companies and startup environments

Ideal Background

Candidates may come from biotechnology companies, pharmaceutical organizations, academic medicine, or clinical-stage drug development environments. Experience leading the clinical strategy for innovative delivery technologies will be viewed particularly favorably.

Engagement

The role is expected to begin in a fractional capacity with the opportunity to expand into a larger leadership commitment as clinical development activities progress.
