Problem
Traditional antibody and protein therapies face challenges related to administration, efficacy, durability, and high production costs, which limit their widespread use and accessibility. Current delivery methods often require frequent clinic visits and may not elicit a sustained therapeutic effect.
Solution
RenBio is developing a DNA-based therapeutic platform, MYO Technology™, that enables the body to produce its own antibodies and therapeutic proteins. This is achieved by delivering therapeutic-encoding DNA "bioblueprints" via intramuscular injection, which are then decoded by muscle cells to synthesize the desired therapeutics directly within the patient's body. This approach aims to improve upon existing antibody therapies by enhancing efficacy, durability, and cost-effectiveness, while also simplifying the administration process. The platform has the potential to address a wide range of diseases, including cancer and infectious diseases.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes patients with cancer, inflammatory diseases, and infectious diseases, as well as healthcare providers seeking more effective and accessible therapeutic options.
