Next Generation Protein Degradation & Stabilization Strategies

PROTACs and molecular glues have put protein degradation as a therapeutic on the map for targeting difficult to drug targets, with promising early clinical results. Despite this, there are a plethora of new very exciting degradation approaches that are coming out of the woodwork. These next generation degraders have the potential to overcome challenges such as crossing the blood brain barrier, specificity, resistance and toxicity issues. With that comes a different set of specific challenges and exciting opportunities that could well go far beyond what existing degraders can achieve.

This dedicated focus day is your comprehensive deep-dive into emerging TACs for protein degradation, stabilization and modification.
