Follistatin gene therapy (plasmid-based)

A non-viral plasmid therapy encoding follistatin intended to transiently increase circulating follistatin protein to modulate myostatin/activin pathways and potentially support increased lean mass and reduced fat.

Klotho gene therapy (plasmid-based, in development)

An investigational plasmid therapy encoding the Klotho protein, developed to target cognitive function, cellular stress response, and longevity-associated pathways; proof-of-concept trial activity reported with anticipated broader availability in 2026.


Services

Coordination and delivery of single-dose, subcutaneous plasmid therapies administered on-site by licensed clinicians at partner clinics, including pre-treatment testing and short post-injection monitoring.

Design and conduct of proof-of-concept and clinical studies under IRB oversight, with multi-modal outcome data collection for safety and efficacy evaluation and preparation for publication.

Onboarding and operational support for licensed clinics to offer investigational plasmid therapies, including clinical protocols, supply logistics, and informed-consent workflows.
