Pfizer has entered a partnership and licensing agreement with Triana Biomedicines to discover molecular glue degraders.

It will lead discovery efforts, while Pfizer will select promising molecules. Triana will get $49 million up front; it could also garner more than $1.5 billion in milestone payments.
