Arvinas is a pharmaceutical company focused on developing new small molecules ‒ known as PROTACs (PROteolysis TArgeting Chimeras) ‒ aimed at degrading disease-causing cellular proteins via proteolysis. Based on innovative research conducted at Yale University by Dr. Craig Crews, Founder and Chief Scientific Advisor, the company is translating natural protein degradation approaches into novel drugs for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. The proprietary PROTAC-based drug paradigm induces protein degradation, rather than protein inhibition, using the ubiquitin proteasome system and offers the advantage of potentially targeting “undruggable” as well as “druggable” elements of the proteome. This greatly expands the ...

Codiak Biosciences

Codiak is the leader in the emerging field of exosome therapeutics, working to harness the power of this cellular messenger system to create potentially life-changing medicines. A venture-backed startup founded in 2015, Codiak has rapidly built a proprietary technology platform for exosome engineering and manufacturing that allows for precise targeting of important molecular pathways, opening the door to the development of therapies for cancer and other diseases. Led by an experienced and dedicated team, Codiak has at its foundation a positive and collaborative culture that is deeply rooted in cutting edge science and promotes opportunity for growth. Recent discoveries have transformed our understanding of the role of exosomes in the body. We now know that these natural, cell-derived vesicles can act as a potent and safe delivery system for multiple therapeutic payloads. Recognizing the enormous potential of exosomes, Codiak is applying leading-edge translational science and rigorous drug development to build a pipeline of candidates with broad utility and the capacity to address currently “undruggable” targets. While our initial focus is on oncology/immuno-oncology, this approach also offers significant potential in hematology, neurology and gene therapy and other therapy areas. At Codiak, we are working to create a major shift in the development of tomorrow`s medicines through scientific ambition, remarkable ingenuity and deep passion for improving patients` lives. Located in the heart of Boston`s biotechnology hub in Cambridge, Massachusetts, we are advancing a bold vision by tapping into the unique talents of a varied pool of individuals who together are achieving truly exceptional work.
