Verastem Oncology (Verastem Inc) was co-founded in 2010 by entrepreneur Christoph H.

The company was formed to commercialize the work of the three other co-founders, MIT biologists Robert Weinberg, Eric S. Lander and Piyush Gupta, by discovering and developing drugs to treat cancer by targeting cancer stem cells.
The company raised $16 million in the initial Series A financing.
Westphal served as CEO and chairman of the board from 2010 to 2013. Under his leadership, the company raised $55 million through an IPO in 2012. Mr. Robert Forrester succeeded Christoph Westphal as Verastem's president and CEO in 2013. In July 2019, Brian Stuglik was appointed to chief executive officer (CEO) of Verastem Oncology.
