ARCA biopharma

ARCA was founded on the belief that a precision medicine approach to drug development, tailoring medical treatment to the individual genetic characteristics of patients, can enable more effective therapies, improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. ARCA`s lead development program is intended to be a direct implementation of those ideas. Gencaro™ (bucindolol hydrochloride) is being developed as a potential treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). ARCA has identified genetic variations in cardiac receptors that we believe may predict individual patient response to Gencaro™, giving Gencaro™ the potential to be the first genetically-targeted prevention treatment for AF. ARCA is also developing rNAPc2 as potential treatment for RNA-associated diseases, initially focused on COVID-19.
