CARE™, Cell-specific AAV Research Engine

CARE™ explores novel AAV vectors with enhanced target specificity and transduction efficiency, powered by InsightMiner™ which suggests amino acid sequences to be inserted into certain region of AAV cap gene.



CARE™ is also aimed at less targeting certain tissues or cells such as liver, in particular. Pharmaceutical companies developing AAV gene therapy programs are occasionally challenged with safety issues during clinical trials caused by, for instance, liver toxicity in higher dose groups. With their leverage of less transducing liver cells, our candidates for liver-detargeting vectors should be of priceless assistance to the sponsors in clinical study in terms of safety.
