Affinia Therapeutics is a developer of a platform for rationally designed adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors and gene therapies intended to develop medicines for devastating diseases. The company leverages synthetic and systems biology combined with high-throughput screening and tissue and single-cell resolution for people affected by muscle and central nervous system (CNS) diseases with significant unmet needs, thereby providing medical professionals with the rational design of novel vectors and gene therapies with remarkably improved properties.

We are building a world-class gene therapy company. Our proprietary rational design platform enables us to methodically engineer the next generation of AAV vectors and gene therapies. We’re finding solutions to the greatest challenges the field is facing, from tissue selectivity and immunogenicity to manufacturing yields, and payload capacity. We have an experienced team that is focused on discovering, developing, and manufacturing breakthrough medicines to transform people’s lives.
