Kymera Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: KYMR) is a biotechnology company harnessing the power of targeted protein degradation (TPD) to develop transformative treatments for previously untreatable diseases. Founded in 2016, and headquartered in Watertown, Massachusetts, Kymera is at the forefront of biotechnology, utilizing the body's innate protein recycling machinery to degrade disease-causing proteins rather than merely inhibiting them.
The company's pioneering platform, Pegasus™, leverages proprietary predictive modeling and an integrated degradation approach to address disease targets previously deemed intractable. This novel modality allows Kymera to target and degrade proteins involved in various critical pathways, including those in immunological diseases and oncology. Key drugs in their pipeline include:
- KT-474: An IRAK4 degrader currently in Phase 2 trials for immuno-inflammatory conditions.
- KT-333: A STAT3 degrader in Phase 1 trials, targeting hematological malignancies and solid tumors.
- KT-253: An MDM2 degrader undergoing Phase 1 trials, aimed at cancers with p53 pathway involvement.
- KT-621: A STAT6 degrader poised to enter Phase 1 trials, showing promising preclinical results for treating TH2-driven diseases like asthma and atopic dermatitis.
Kymera's achievements include successful partnerships with leading pharmaceutical companies such as Sanofi, ongoing collaborations with research institutions, and securing significant financial backing with over $745 million in cash reserves to support operations into 2027. The company's innovative approach and robust pipeline have earned it recognition as one of Boston’s top workplaces.
Kymera continues to make significant strides in drug discovery and development, with a focus on delivering highly effective, convenient oral therapies. Recent updates include positive preclinical and clinical data presentations at major medical conferences, highlighting the potential of their degradation technology to revolutionize treatment paradigms across various diseases.

Kymera Therapeutics presented new preclinical data for KT-621, an oral STAT6 degrader, at the ATS Annual Meeting. KT-621 showed comparable or superior activity to dupilumab in asthma models, inhibiting key cytokines and chemokines involved in TH2 inflammation. Additional data were shared at Digestive Disease Week, showing KT-621's effects on esophageal smooth muscle cells related to eosinophilic esophagitis. Phase 1 trials for KT-621 are expected to start in the second half of 2024, with data anticipated by the first half of 2025. KT-621 aims to offer a convenient oral treatment for asthma and other TH2 respiratory diseases, potentially transforming current treatment paradigms.
Kymera Therapeutics (NASDAQ: KYMR) announced new Phase 1 data for KT-333, a STAT3 degrader, set to be presented at the European Hematology Association (EHA) Annual Meeting from June 13-16, 2024. The data cut-off date was February 6, 2024. The ongoing study involves 39 patients with various hematologic and solid tumors. Key highlights include two complete responses in classic Hodgkin's lymphoma patients, three partial responses in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma patients, and stable disease in four solid tumor patients. KT-333 achieved a maximum degradation of 97.5% in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, showing favorable immunomodulatory responses. The drug was generally well-tolerated, though two dose-limiting toxicities were observed. Kymera plans to share more data in the second half of 2024.
