Arvinas announced the first patient dosing in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial of ARV-6723, an oral PROTAC designed to degrade HPK1 for advanced solid tumors. The drug is Arvinas' first immuno-oncology candidate and the first HPK1 PROTAC degrader to enter clinical trials in the US. Preclinical data showed potent HPK1 degradation, enhanced immune activity, and antitumor effects as monotherapy and in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy, including activity in anti-PD-1-resistant models.
