Translate Bio is a leading mRNA therapeutics company developing a new class of potentially transformative medicines to treat diseases caused by protein or gene dysfunction. Our proprietary mRNA therapeutic platform (MRTTM) is designed to develop product candidates that deliver mRNA carrying instructions to produce intracellular, transmembrane and secreted proteins for therapeutic benefit. We believe that our MRTTM platform is applicable to a broad range of diseases caused by insufficient protein production or where production of proteins can modify disease, including diseases that affect the lung, liver, eye, central nervous system, lymphatic system and circulatory system. Our two lead programs are being developed as treatments for cystic fibrosis (CF) and ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) deficiency.
BioCentriq was founded in 2018 and is a full service CDMO for cell and gene therapy process development and clinical manufacturing. Our ISO-7 certified GMP clinical manufacturing facility is in Newark, NJ. At this facility, we manufacture autologous and allogeneic cell therapies, gene therapies and provide analytical and quality services across several cell types. We offer viral vector production, cell and viral banking and upstream and downstream processing. Additionally, we have the capabilities to manufacture immunotherapies, including monoclonal antibodies and proteins, and vaccines. Our facilities provide full customer access to work in hybrid teams from tech transfer through GMP clinical production. BioCentriq has a BSL-2 certified process development facility located in South Brunswick, NJ to accelerate scale-up and translation activities. We are vendor and technology agnostic and work with our clients to leverage the optimal technology platform for your product through the development process. In support of our full suite of process development and clinical manufacturing services, the team at BioCentriq offers pre-defined and custom workforce development programs as well as full access to our centers during projects in a unique collaborative approach with our expert scientists to knowledge transfer.
We are a genome editing company developing genetic medicines for the fight against rare pediatric diseases. GeneRide™ is a promoterless and nuclease-free approach to gene insertion which may improve the safety profile of AAV based gene therapies With GeneRide™, the therapeutic gene is site-specifically integrated into the genome allowing durable gene expression in dividing cells and mature tissues. Furthermore, therapeutic gene expression is regulated by the targeted locus so production can be limited to specific cell types.
