About LifeArc

LifeArc is a not-for-profit medical research organisation that turns promising scientific research into impact for people living with rare diseases and Global Health infections.

We form partnerships and provide scientific expertise and funding to help break down the barriers preventing scientific breakthroughs from becoming life-transforming treatments and cures. We have been doing this for more than 30 years and our work has resulted in five licensed medicines, including cancer drug pembrolizumab and lecanemab for Alzheimer’s disease.

Our goal is a world where no one with a rare disease or a global infectious disease misses out on life-changing innovation because of complexity, cost or risk.
