We are a leading clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to saving and restoring sight for people living with rare and prevalent ocular diseases.
Diseases we work on:
X-Linked Retinitis Pigmentosa (XLRP)
Bold science
AAV Gene Therapy
Gene therapy for ophthalmic disorders
Gene therapy is the process of modifying a patient’s cells by adding a functional copy of the mutated gene responsible for the disease. The new functional copy allows a patient’s own body to produce proteins to treat or prevent genetic conditions. A single treatment can provide long lasting benefits, potentially leading to a better quality of life.
