NEW HAVEN, Conn., June 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Arvinas, Inc. (Nasdaq: ARVN), a biotechnology company creating a new class of drugs based on targeted protein degradation, today announced it has recently joined the LRRK2 Investigative Therapeutics Exchange (LITE) program and the Parkinson\u2019s Precision Medicine Initiative (PPMI), both supported by The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson\u2019s Research (MJFF).<\/p>\n

Participation in these programs will support advancement of ARV-102, Arvinas\u2019 investigational, orally bioavailable and brain-penetrant PROTAC designed to specifically target and degrade leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) for the potential treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson\u2019s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP).<\/p>\n

\u201cJoining these important Michael J. Fox Foundation-supported initiatives further reinforces our commitment to advancing ARV-102 through rigorous translational science, collaborative data generation, and deep engagement with the broader Parkinson\u2019s disease research community,\u201d said Angela Cacace, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Arvinas. \u201cWe believe targeted protein degradation offers a highly differentiated approach to addressing neurodegenerative diseases, and participation in LITE and PPMI will help deepen our understanding of LRRK2 biology as we progress our ARV-102 program. We are honored to join these programs and look forward to contributing to research and the depth of target and pathway engagement that we hope will one day benefit patients in need.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAt The Michael J. Fox Foundation, we remain focused on accelerating the development of better treatments for people living with Parkinson\u2019s disease through collaborative, biology-driven research,\u201d said Shalini Padmanabhan, Ph.D., Senior Vice President and Head of Translational Research at The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson\u2019s Research. \u201cPrograms like LITE and PPMI are helping build the translational and biomarker infrastructure needed to better understand LRRK2 biology, support more precise therapeutic development, and advance the field toward more personalized approaches to Parkinson\u2019s disease.\u201d<\/p>\n

The LITE program is a large-scale global initiative designed to support the development of therapeutic approaches targeting LRRK2, a key genetic and biological driver of Parkinson\u2019s disease and PSP. Through participation in LITE, Arvinas will collaborate with leading academic and industry experts and leverage shared preclinical and translational resources to further characterize ARV-102 and contribute to the broader understanding of LRRK2-targeted therapies.<\/p>\n

PPMI is a study collaborating with global partners to create a robust open-access data set and biosample library to speed scientific breakthroughs and new treatment options for Parkinson\u2019s disease. By participating in PPMI, Arvinas aims to leverage collaborative research insights to inform translational and clinical strategies for ARV-102, including evaluation of target engagement and disease progression as the program advances in Parkinson\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n

\n About Arvinas<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

Arvinas (Nasdaq: ARVN) is a 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\u2019s natural protein disposal system to selectively and efficiently degrade and remove disease-causing proteins. Arvinas, with its partner Pfizer, developed the first U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved PROTAC, a type of heterobifunctional protein degrader.<\/p>\n

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; and ARV-027, targeting the polyglutamine-expanded androgen receptor, or polyQ-AR, in skeletal muscle. Arvinas is headquartered in New Haven, Connecticut. For more information about Arvinas, visit www.arvinas.com and connect on LinkedIn<\/a> and X<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n About ARV-102<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

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 over expression of LRRK2 have been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases, including LRRK2 genetic and idiopathic Parkinson\u2019s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). ARV-102 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with Parkinson\u2019s disease and Arvinas plans to initiate a Phase 1b, and potentially a registrational Phase 2, clinical trial with ARV-102 in patients with PSP, pending regulatory feedback, in 2H 2026.<\/p>\n

\n About the LRRK2 Investigative Therapeutics Exchange (LITE) Program<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson\u2019s Research (MJFF) launched the LRRK2 Investigative Therapeutics Exchange (LITE) program in 2024 to accelerate the development of novel therapeutic approaches targeting LRRK2. Built on MJFF\u2019s commitment to open science, LITE brings together companies developing LRRK2-targeting therapies with a global network of academic, clinical, and industry experts and provides preclinical and translational resources to support drug development. The initiative is implemented by the University of Dundee and includes collaborations with programs supported by Aligning Science Across Parkinson\u2019s (ASAP), including the Collaborative Research Network (CRN), the Parkinson\u2019s Precision Medicine Initiative (PPMI), and the Global Parkinson\u2019s Genetics Program (GP2).

\n About the Parkinson\u2019s Precision Medicine Initiative (PPMI)<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

The Parkinson\u2019s Precision Medicine Initiative (PPMI) is an international, longitudinal research effort focused on advancing the understanding of Parkinson\u2019s disease across its clinical and biological spectrum. The study aggregates health, clinical, imaging, and molecular data from participants worldwide and makes these data available to qualified researchers through a centralized digital platform. With participation from more than 50 medical centers across 12 countries, PPMI supports collaborative research aimed at improving disease characterization, biomarker development, and the evaluation of emerging therapeutic approaches.
