Registration filing summary
9 Oct, 2026Company overview and business model
Clinical-stage biotech developing RNAi therapeutics to silence disease-relevant proteins; platform combines trigger engineering, tissue-selective delivery and genetics-led target selection.
Pipeline targets thromboembolic disease with CITY-FXI, Stargardt disease and geographic atrophy with CITY-RBP4, and chronic-disease anemia with CITY-TFR2; all remain early clinical or preclinical.
Platform uses AI/ML trigger design, GalNAc liver delivery and proprietary LRP1 ligands intended for ocular, CNS and adipose tissues; goal of one to two IND or IND-equivalent filings annually.
Revenue to date comes from Bausch + Lomb and Biogen collaboration research; no product sales, approved products or commercial sales capability yet.
Bausch + Lomb and Biogen collaborations advance ocular and CNS programs; partners may select candidates and assume development, manufacturing and commercialization responsibilities.
