Approach

targeted muscle therapies

We are developing therapies that target muscle tissue with unprecedented precision to restore muscle health. The company’s FORCE™ platform can deliver oligonucleotides and other molecules to skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle to treat a range of serious muscle diseases. In addition to Dyne’s initial focus on myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), we are advancing additional programs in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD).

  • We have designed a therapeutic molecule by linking an antibody to an oligonucleotide.
  • The receptor is highly expressed on muscle cells. By engaging the receptor, the antibody brings the oligonucleotide to the primary site of disease and facilitates delivery into the muscle cells.
  • Once inside the cell, the oligonucleotide binds with the RNA that is driving disease progression.
  • Disease-causing RNA is degraded.
  • This highly targeted approach is designed to promote muscle health.
