NeuBase Therapeutics Announces Appointment of Cancer Biologist and RNA Therapeutics Specialist Steven Dowdy, Ph.D., to Scientific Advisory Board
Rare genetic diseases collectively affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide
The next generation of gene silencing technology
NeuBase has developed a modular antisense peptide nucleic acid (PNA) platform with the capability to address rare genetic disease caused by mutant proteins with a single, cohesive approach. NeuBase has improved gene silencing therapies to include the advantages of synthetic approaches with the precision of antisense technologies.
Technology
The advantages of the NeuBase PATrOL™ platform enable the company to cohesively develop therapies for a wide range of rare genetic diseases, including repeat expansion disorders, dominant and recessive genetic disorders and cancers driven by specific oncogenic mutations.
NeuBase is first addressing Huntington’s disease and myotonic dystrophy.
The NeuBase technology has several advantages over traditional ASOs
Sd
Scalable & Modular Development
Pre-organized peptide backbone and toolkit of engineered nuclear bases allow drugs to be quickly snapped together for many targets
Ts
Targeting Secondary RNA Structures
Higher specificity for mutant over wild type transcript, allowing for fewer off-target effects and more effective deactivation of disease-related mRNA
Sa
Systemic Administration
Ability to cross the blood brain barrier and disseminate broadly, allowing for systemic administration in neurological indications
Ni
No Immune Response
Do not cause an immune response when systemically administered, enabling us to develop solutions for pre-symptomatic individuals who are gene positive
