What We Do
Gene Therapy for Rapid Muscle Recovery and Tactical Performance
Maverick Bio’s AAV9-IGF1 gene therapy platform delivers skeletal muscle–specific enhancement peptide expression via a single IV injection. This enables rapid, targeted muscle growth without affecting serum enhancement peptide levels or off-target organs like the liver and heart. The result is fast recovery and enhanced physical capacity, with a safety profile unmatched by systemic hormone therapies.
Fentanyl-Class Prophylaxis and Overdose Protection
This high-affinity monoclonal antibody provides long-lasting prophylactic protection against fentanyl and its ultra-potent analogs (e.g., carfentanil, sufentanil). It neutralizes opioid molecules in the bloodstream before they can cross the blood–brain barrier, offering life-saving protection even at lethal exposure levels. Crucially, the antibody does not interfere with naloxone, allowing for combined use in emergency settings.

News & Updates
Maverick Metals is supported by Y Combinator, a leading startup accelerator, underscoring its innovative approach and growth potential in the field of metal extraction technologies.
LithX enables heap leaching of chalcopyrite and other refractory sulfides, while also solubilizing valuable byproducts like molybdenum, gold, and silver. This event highlights how Maverick Metals is transforming copper processing and turning low-grade ore, tailings, and smelter slag into high-value feedstock.
Showcases how LithX improves recovery and enhances profitability in critical metal extraction, even from slag and refractory materials, without the need for costly infrastructure or harsh acids.
