  • The collaboration will evaluate combining the circVec generation 5 construct into POLARIS-101TM to address major unmet medical needs in genetic heart disease
  • Solid Biosciences´ proprietary, next-generation AAV capsid, POLARIS-101, was engineered for enhanced cardiac and muscle tropism
  • Circio´s latest circVec generation 5 has demonstrated up to 200-fold enhanced gene expression from AAV vectors in heart in vivo
