Delivering what's next in genetic medicine.
Averna Therapeutics (formerly Exsilio Therapeutics) is a biotechnology company developing RNA/lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-based genomic medicines designed to durably insert any gene or genetic instruction of interest into cells. The company's platform leverages site-specific retrotransposons — nature's precision gene insertion system — to safely integrate large sets of genetic instructions at safe harbor genomic locations without disrupting cell function. Averna's all-RNA system, delivered by LNPs, aims to expand the reach of genetic medicines beyond what viral approaches can achieve, broadening addressable diseases and patient populations. The company was recognized as a 2025 Endpoints 11 Most Promising Biotech.
