Company Overview

About EpiBiologics

EpiBiologics develops EpiTAC — a targeted protein degradation platform designed to eliminate membrane and secreted proteins that existing degrader technologies cannot reach. The company raised $107 million in Series B financing in January 2026, co-led by Johnson & Johnson Ventures and Google Ventures, a rare investor pairing that brings both pharma development expertise and computational biology capabilities. The lead program, EPI-326 (an EGFR degrader for non-small cell lung cancer), is entering Phase 1 clinical trials in the first half of 2026.

Business Model & Competitive Advantage

Targeted protein degradation (TPD) — using molecular glues and PROTACs to hijack the cell's own protein disposal machinery — has become one of oncology's most active drug discovery fields. However, the majority of current degraders can only reach intracellular targets: the proteins inside the cell. EpiBiologics' EpiTAC platform extends degradation to membrane-bound receptors (including growth factor receptors and immune checkpoints) and secreted proteins in the extracellular space — dramatically broadening the target class that degradation approaches can address.

Competitive Landscape 2025–2026

J&J Ventures' co-lead is particularly significant given Janssen's deep oncology portfolio and history of acquiring precision oncology assets: EpiBiologics' platform access to targets like EGFR — which has driven multiple Janssen-adjacent drug classes — signals potential strategic interest in both the technology and the clinical assets.
