In vivo targeted delivery of nucleic acids to hematopoietic stem cells for treating primary immunodeficiencies - summary in this Phase I SBIR, optimeos will develop an off-the-shelf nanoparticle platform for in vivo stem cell gene therapy, which we will initially apply to treat ada-scid, a severe immune deficiency. We will deliver a DNA payload in nanoparticles targeting hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (hspcs) for gene replacement. We envision that this non-viral, redosable in vivo hspc gene therapy will enable the expression of encapsulated DNA in target cells while improving safety by avoiding viral integration and potential off-target effects. This therapy has the potential to overcome several challenges posed by ex vivo gene and cell therapies: IT could lower treatment costs, expand treatment availability beyond major academic centers, and reduce patient burden by obviating the need for chemotherapeutic pre-conditioning. With over 6 million people worldwide affected by more than 485 distinct inborn errors of immunity, our in vivo hspc gene therapy platform has the potential to be transformative for many underserved patients. As an initial indication, ada-scid is a disease with established animal models and clinical pathways to reduce development risks. Our coated inverse nanocarriers (cincs) encapsulate nucleic acids in a polymer-lipid hybrid structure that minimize ...

Where this comes from

The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs set aside part of federal research budgets for small companies. Agencies award them in phases: Phase I tests whether an idea is feasible, Phase II funds development, and Phase III is follow-on work paid for outside the set-aside. STTR awards also require a research institution as a partner.

Every figure on this page is taken from the award's own federal record, linked beside it, as it stood when the page was built: the recipient, its address, the awarding agency and office, the amount obligated so far, the dates and the description. Phase and program are shown as the award's own description states them. The amount can grow later if the agency adds funding to the same award.
