Gene Therapy

Inomagen’s gene therapy program has demonstrated preclinical success targeting underlying mechanisms of AFib, and is advancing into IND-enabling studies with an independent CRO.

Inomagen is developing a gene therapy with improved efficacy for AFib patients including undertreated patients with early stage (paroxysmal) to advanced stage (persistent) AFib.

We have:

  • Identified major molecular mechanisms that contribute to AFib in a majority of patients with AFib

  • Identified major trans-genes to selectively target these mechanisms in the atrium

  • Utilized electroporation following gene injection to provide therapeutic gene transfer and expression

  • Decreased AFib in clinically relevant, large animal models of AFib

  • Achieved readiness for IND-enabling studies with an independent CRO


Targeting underlying molecular mechanisms of AFib


Inomagen’s gene therapy has demonstrated preclinical success in large animal models of AFib

Preventing Electrical Remodeling – Inomagen’s Gene Therapy (NOX2 shRNA) prevented the onset of AFib in both a short and long-term rapid atrial pacing (RAP) model

Minimizing Structural Remodeling – Inomagen’s Gene Therapy (NOX2 shRNA) Dramatically Reduced AFib Induced Fibrosis

Future Targets – Inomagen has identified other promising proprietary targets for future development (e.g., NGF shRNA targets autonomic nervous system)
