Enhancing gene therapy with Circio

Drug Target Review

What are the key findings of Circio’s in vivo proof-of-concept for its circVec circular RNA platform technology compared to conventional mRNA-based expression with DNA vectors? Circular RNA (circRNA) has two major advantages versus mRNA in a vector-expression context. DNA vectors in mouse models?

Unlocking the potential of mRNA for the future treatment of rare diseases 

Drug Discovery World

The half-life of proteins expressed through the mRNA technology is also much longer than those of direct protein delivery, which suggests that it could be more effective as a treatment strategy for rare diseases. Therefore, the risk for off-target insertional mutagenesis is greatly reduced.
