About ARV-102

ARV-102 is an oral, brain-penetrant investigational PROTAC designed to degrade LRRK2, which is a large, multidomain scaffolding kinase. Increased activity, scaffolding, and expression of LRRK2 have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases. LRRK2 mutations are a frequent familial cause of Parkinson’s disease, and common LRRK2 variants have been linked with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy.

About Arvinas

Arvinas (Nasdaq: ARVN) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to improving the lives of patients suffering from debilitating and life-threatening diseases. Through its PROTAC protein degrader platform, Arvinas is pioneering the development of protein degradation therapies designed to harness the body’s natural protein disposal system to selectively and efficiently degrade and remove disease-causing proteins. Arvinas is currently progressing multiple investigational drugs through clinical development programs, including vepdegestrant, targeting the estrogen receptor for patients with locally advanced or metastatic estrogen receptor–positive (ER+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2–negative (HER2-) breast cancer; ARV-393, targeting B-cell lymphoma 6 protein (BCL6) for relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma; ARV-102, targeting LRRK2 for neurodegenerative disorders; and ARV-806, targeting Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) G12D for cancers harboring this mutation, including pancreatic and colorectal cancer.
