Cedilla Therapeutics is discovering and exploiting unique insights into protein stability. Cedilla's integrated, multi-faceted approach has the potential to broaden the reach of small molecules by generating therapeutics that degrade protein targets as their primary mechanism of action.
The approach harnesses intrinsic degradation pathways that are upstream of ubiquitination. Cedilla is focused on destabilizing oncoprotein targets using a product engine that is also applicable to targets outside of oncology.
Cedilla was launched in 2018 by Third Rock Ventures and is based in Cambridge, Mass.
