We develop first-in-class RNA-based therapies, with lead programs in Head & Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) and Facioscalpulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD).
Our approach to drug design revolves around using genomic patient data to create highly tailored therapeutics – the right drug for the right patient.
Our proprietary DREAmiR™ platform utilizes genomic and outcome data from thousands of patients to identify underlying genetic changes that cause their disease, and then creates a novel RNA therapeutic that can directly target and fix that genetic abnormality.
