Solving the RNAi Delivery Problem
Traversa Therapeutics, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development and commercialization of RNAi Delivery Technologies. The company strives to rapidly advance short interfering RNA (siRNA) platform delivery technologies for use by RNAi therapeutic companies in targeting a wide variety of acute, chronic and infectious human diseases. Traversa is focused on the optimization of this platform delivery technology, as well as advancement of its own therapeutic programs for the treatment of Leukemia and Glioblastoma.
Traversa's RNAi Delivery Technology
Traversa’s siRNA delivery technology is specifically designed to avoid the physical size and bioavailability problems inherent in the Liposome/cationic-lipid approach. The technology is non-cytotoxic, delivers to the entire cell population and all cell-types tested, and is dramatically smaller than a liposome. The Company expects the technology to provide improved pharmacokinetics, distribution and bioavailability over other methods. The technology supports delivery to primary and tumor cells, T cells, B cells, Macrophage, neuronal cells and human stem cells, where other approaches have failed.
