Find Clinical Drug Pipeline Developments & Deals by Kriya Therapeutics
The collaboration aims to advance Kriya’s portfolio of gene therapies designed to block complement C3 and C5 for retinal diseases using Everads' suprachoroidal delivery device.
Kriya acquires a portfolio of Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21) assets including Tramontane’s lead program, an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector designed to express a steady level of the native FGF21 protein, for treating people with NASH.
The net proceeds from the financing will support the clinical translation of Kriya’s broad pipeline of gene therapies and continued scaling of its engineering, computational and manufacturing platforms.
The acquisition serves as the foundation for Kriya’s neurology therapeutic area portfolio, with two lead gene therapy programs focused on epilepsy and trigeminal neuralgia (TN).
Proceeds from this financing will support the advancement of Kriya’s pipeline and continued scaling of its engineering, manufacturing, and computational platforms. Kriya has established an ecosystem for delivering best-in-class technologies and medicines in gene therapy.
Twist Biopharma, expects to leverage its antibody discovery and optimization platform to discover novel antibodies against specific targets of interest that will be engineered into Kriya’s proprietary gene therapy technology platform for durable and targeted delivery.
Through this agreement, Kriya is advancing gene therapies that are designed to durably express engineered molecules that selectively reduce complement hyperactivity at the site of pathology following one-time administration.
Under the agreement, Kriya has obtained exclusive rights to Warden Bio’s five preclinical gene therapy programs. This acquisition serves as the foundation for Kriya’s Rare Disease Division focused on the discovery and development of gene therapies for rare diseases.
Financing proceeds will support the development of Kriya's pipeline, internal discovery engine, and proprietary GMP manufacturing infrastructure. Kriya's initial pipeline includes multiple AAV-based gene therapies for the treatment of metabolic diseases.
