Arvinas, Pfizer Team Up on PROTACs.

Abstract:

:Biotechnology startup Arvinas is developing proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTAC) that combat cancer by degrading disease-causing proteins. The company's first PROTACs will target prostate and breast cancers, and a recent deal with Pfizer will allow Arvinas to develop PROTACs for other cancer types.
