Acuitas’ clinically validated LNP technology has had a profound global impact — most notably enabling the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, COMIRNATY®, which has protected billions of people in more than 180 countries. Its technology also enables ONPATTRO® by Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, the first FDA-approved RNAi therapeutic for treating the rare and fatal disease transthyretin amyloidosis. More recently, Acuitas’ LNP technology has delivered other groundbreaking firsts: the first in-human proof of concept for genome base editing and the first personalized CRISPR therapy.
Today, Acuitas is advancing next-generation LNP to support a variety of therapeutic modalities. This includes targeted LNP for extrahepatic therapies such as in vivo CAR T-cells, gene editing therapies across multiple DNA editing technologies, epigenetic medicines to modulate gene expression without altering DNA, and multivalent vaccines for infectious diseases — such as malaria, HIV/AIDS, and tuberculosis — as well as oncology vaccines, including personalized cancer vaccines.
