OUR MISSION

Translate precise control of gene expression into meaningful improvements in human function.

PNAFUSE™ PLATFORM

A compact architecture for programmable gene regulation.

PNAfuse combines a sequence-directed PNA component with an effector designed to influence gene activity at a selected locus—without cutting DNA.

  1. 01Compact cargo

    A modular PNA–effector construct is designed for delivery to muscle.

  2. 02Nuclear access

    The construct is intended to reach the nucleus, where gene regulation occurs.

  3. 03Locus recognition

    Sequence-directed binding is designed to localize activity to a selected site.

  4. 04Effector recruitment

    A linked effector is intended to tune local chromatin and gene expression.

P

Programmable

A modular design intended to address distinct targets through sequence-specific recognition.

C

Compact

A small nucleic-acid architecture designed to support practical delivery development.

N

Non-cutting

Built to regulate gene activity without introducing permanent DNA breaks.

R

Redosing-oriented

Designed with repeat administration in mind; feasibility remains to be established.

PIPELINE

Two programs focused on muscle function.

Our programs apply the PNAfuse architecture to genetically and biologically defined drivers of muscle dysfunction.

LEAD PROGRAMEPH-101

FACIOSCAPULOHUMERAL MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY

Silencing the DUX4 disease program in FSHD muscle.

A locus-directed program intended to repress pathogenic DUX4 expression and support restoration of muscle function.

StageDiscoveryTarget engagement and functional assays
FOLLOW-ON PROGRAMEPH-102

MOBILITY DISABILITY

Preserving the muscle function that supports independent movement.

A programmable epigenetic medicine program designed to address age-associated pathways linked to muscle performance and mobility.

StageDiscoveryTarget and construct evaluation

All programs are preclinical. Development candidates have not been nominated, and safety or efficacy has not been established.

BUILT FOR DECISIVE LEARNING

Evidence first. Platform value follows.

Epivida’s development strategy is organized around clear, measurable gates—from target engagement through gene regulation and muscle function.
