On March 18, 2024, Arvinas, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), announced the appointment of Noah Berkowitz, M.D., Ph.D., to the role of chief medical officer, effective as of March 18, 2024. Dr. Berkowitz will lead the ongoing clinical development of the Company’s PROTAC® protein degrader programs in oncology and neuroscience.

Dr. Berkowitz has more than 20 years of experience in advancing programs through early and late stages of development, including experience in clinical development, regulatory, and medical affairs. Dr. Berkowitz most recently served as Senior Vice President, Development Unit Head, Hematology, at Bristol-Myers Squibb, a global biopharmaceutical company.

On March 14, 2024, the Company notified Ron Peck, M.D., the Company’s previously serving chief medical officer, of Dr. Berkowitz’s pending appointment and the reassignment of the responsibilities of chief medical officer to Dr. Berkowitz effective as of March 18, 2024. The Company anticipates that Dr. Peck will continue as an employee of the Company until mid-April 2024 for a transition period before leaving to pursue other opportunities. Subject to execution and nonrevocation of a release of claims in the Company’s favor and his continued compliance with his proprietary rights, non-disclosure, developments, non-competition and non-solicitation agreement, Dr. Peck will be entitled to the severance benefits provided under his employment agreement in connection with a termination of his employment without cause or for good reason. These severance benefits include, subject to the terms of his employment agreement, (1) continued payment of his base salary for a period of nine months and (2) payment of the portion of health coverage premiums paid for similarly-situated, active employees who receive the same type of coverage, for a period of up to nine months.
