The future outlook for mRNA therapies

Drug Discovery World

The widespread recognition of the term “mRNA” by people around the world can be attributed to the development of Covid-19 vaccines.” mRNA is a molecule made up of a single strand of ribonucleic acid (RNA). At the start of 2024, the first patients in a clinical trial investigating an mRNA cancer therapy were dosed.
