Synnovation Therapeutics

Synnovation Therapeutics is a Wilmington, Delaware precision medicine company building small-molecule cancer drugs aimed at validated oncology targets where greater potency and selectivity could beat the current standard of care. Founded in 2024 by a team of former Incyte medicinal chemistry leaders, it launched with a $102 million Series A led by Third Rock Ventures. Its lead programs are SNV1521, a CNS-penetrant, highly selective PARP1 inhibitor, and SNV4818, a mutant-selective PI3K-alpha inhibitor whose subsidiary Pikavation Therapeutics was acquired by Novartis in March 2026 for $2 billion upfront.
