The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is providing additional funding to Arcturus Therapeutics to develop an inhaled messenger RNA therapy for CF that provides lung cells with the correct instructions to make functional cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein. The funding brings our total commitment to Arcturus to approximately $25 million.
Nosis Bio, an inaugural winner of the Foundation’s Golden Ticket Competition, receives funding to further explore design of novel ligands, which are specialized molecules that could help more precise targeting of relevant cells in the lung.
ViaNautis’ non-viral delivery mechanism, polyNaut®, aims to improve delivery of genetic therapies to the cells of people with CF.
Funding will support clinical trials for therapy that could help improve digestion in people with CF
The Cystic Fibrosis Lung Transplant Consortium Biorepository and Patient Registry, in collaboration with Cleveland Clinic, will provide critical clinical data and samples to support future research investigating complications of lung transplant.
Today, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation announced a collaboration with Deep Science Ventures to accelerate treatments that address the underlying cause of CF for every person with the disease. The collaboration will focus on uncovering and designing new technologies to address key scientific challenges on the Path to a Cure.
Carbon Biosciences is the first company to publicly launch from the Foundation’s collaboration with Longwood Fund and the first to work alongside CF Foundation researchers at the Foundation’s therapeutics lab
Clarametyx’s novel therapy aims to disrupt bacterial biofilms, one of the primary causes of antibiotic resistance, thereby potentially increasing the effectiveness of existing treatments in fighting a wide range of bacterial infections, including those commonly affecting people with CF.
Prime Medicine’s prime editing technology has the potential to bring genetic therapies to all people with cystic fibrosis, ultimately paving the way to a cure.
