Arvinas to Present Phase 1 Data for ARV-102, a PROTAC LRRK2 Degrader, in Oral Session at the 2026 International Conference on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases and Related Neurological Disorders
– Company to highlight new safety, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic data from Phase 1 clinical trial of ARV-102 in participants with Parkinson’s disease –
NEW HAVEN, Conn., March 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Arvinas, Inc. (Nasdaq: ARVN), a clinical-stage biotechnology company creating a new class of drugs based on targeted protein degradation, today announced that data from a Phase 1 clinical trial of ARV-102 in participants with Parkinson’s disease (PD) will be presented at the 2026 International Conference on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases and Related Neurological Disorders (AD/PD™ 2026), March 17-21, 2026, in Copenhagen, Denmark. ARV-102 is Arvinas’ investigational, orally bioavailable PROteolysis TArgeting Chimera (PROTAC) degrader designed to cross the blood-brain barrier and target leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), a multifunctional protein that has been implicated in PD and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP).
Presentation details are as follows:

About ARV-102
ARV-102 is an investigational, orally bioavailable PROTAC designed to cross the blood-brain barrier and specifically target and degrade leucine-rich repeat kinase (LRRK2), a large, multidomain scaffolding kinase with GTPase activity. Increased activity and overexpression of LRRK2 have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases, including Parkinson’s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). ARV-102 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with Parkinson’s disease and Arvinas plans to initiate a Phase 1b clinical trial with ARV-102 in patients with PSP, pending regulatory feedback, in the first half of 2026.
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 (PROteolysis TArgeting Chimera) 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 ARV-102, targeting LRRK2 for neurodegenerative disorders; ARV-806, targeting KRAS G12D for mutated cancers, including pancreatic, colorectal, and non-small cell lung cancers; ARV-393, targeting BCL6 for relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin Lymphoma; ARV-027, targeting the polyglutamine-expanded androgen receptor, or polyQ-AR, in skeletal muscle; and vepdegestrant, targeting the estrogen receptor for patients with locally advanced or metastatic ER+/HER2- breast cancer.
