Working to Bring New Medicines to Patients to Address Immediate Unmet Needs

Arvinas is dedicated to advancing comprehensive programs in oncology and neurodegeneration, including against targets that have traditionally been deemed “undruggable.”

We Create PROteolysis TArgeting Chimeras

We are engineering an expansive pipeline of proteolysis targeting chimeras, or PROTACs, designed to harness the body’s own natural protein disposal system (the ubiquitin proteasome system) to selectively and efficiently degrade and remove disease-causing proteins.

Our Research

PROTAC degraders have clear characteristics that may provide potential advantages over other modalities in oncology and neurodegenerative diseases. Arvinas is the first targeted protein degradation company with an investigational drug to complete a pivotal trial and submit a New Drug Application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Oncology

Our pipeline of PROTACs in oncology have the potential ability to overcome evolving resistance mechanisms, target classically “undruggable” proteins, and offer oral therapies that could provide a new treatment option in areas of unmet needs.

Neurology

We are pioneering the discovery of PROTACs in historically difficult-to-treat neurological diseases, with orally administered PROTACs that have demonstrated the ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier and reach targets in deep-brain regions.

Pipeline

Discover more about our pipeline and clinical programs, including potential therapies for neurodegenerative diseases, solid tumors, and hematological cancers, as well as the history of PROTAC degraders being developed for patients with prostate cancer.

The agents listed above are currently under investigation. Their safety and effectiveness have not been established.
