Bristol Myers Squibb started a Phase 1 trial of BMS-986506 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma, triggering a $10 million milestone payment to Evotec SE. The candidate is the first molecular glue from the companies’ protein-degradation partnership to enter human testing.
Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are advancing from experimental to clinical-stage cancer therapies, with first candidates entering Phase III trials. The technology degrades target proteins rather than blocking them, offering new options for previously undruggable targets.
