Jeune


Biotechnology company developing skin-targeted gene-delivery therapeutics for aesthetic indications. The organization uses a clinically described, skin-optimized viral gene-delivery platform to deliver genes encoding structural skin proteins (collagen and elastin) with the objective of inducing endogenous protein expression to address intrinsic and photo-induced aging. The company’s portfolio includes preclinical and early clinical programs targeting multiple collagen types and elastin.

Gene-delivery candidate for Type III collagen (COL3A1)

Clinical-stage gene-delivery program designed to induce expression of type III collagen in skin to improve fine lines and wrinkles; includes first-in-human and extension cohort data.

Gene-delivery candidate for Type I collagen

Development-stage program intended to increase type I collagen expression in skin via targeted gene delivery.

Gene-delivery candidate for Elastin

Preclinical and development-stage candidate aiming to induce elastin expression in skin to improve elasticity and related aesthetic endpoints.

Combination gene-delivery candidate for Type III collagen and Elastin

Clinical candidate combining delivery of genes for type III collagen and elastin to address dynamic wrinkles; reported positive Phase 1 results for décolleté indications.

Gene-delivery candidate for Type IV collagen

Development-stage program focused on inducing type IV collagen expression in skin via targeted gene delivery.
