Radar Therapeutics


Developer of precision-expressed mRNA therapeutics that use transcriptome-based sensing to restrict therapeutic activity to desired cell types. The company combines analysis of single-cell transcriptomic datasets, engineered RNA sensors and RNA-editing–based control mechanisms to create mRNA constructs that "read" cell state and conditionally "write" therapeutic functions in vivo. Activities include platform development, preclinical validation, peer-reviewed publications, and early-stage commercialization efforts.

Products

Platform for precision-controlled mRNA therapeutics

A platform that combines transcriptome-driven target identification, engineered RNA sensors, and RNA-editing–based control to produce mRNAs that express therapeutic functions only in intended cell types and contexts.

RADAR platform

A platform enabling precision therapeutics through targeted, timely, and controlled reading of the mRNA message in just the right cells, avoiding toxic side-effects in non-target cells.
