Public Profile

RainBIO is the only ocular gene therapy pioneer focused on blindness in the cornea. Company's adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector gene therapy can directly correct cornea cellular function to maintain or restore vision in patients at risk of blindness from a number of diseases. RainBIO's groundbreaking first-in-class lead program for corneal clouding in Mucopolysaccharidosis type 1 (MPS1) patients who have vision loss from this rare genetic disease opens up a new field in ocular gene therapy.
