Roche will aim to tackle gene therapy challenges through Dyno deal

1 November 2024

Dyno Therapeutics has recently announced the formation of a new strategic partnership with Swiss pharma giant Roche (ROG: SIX) to develop adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy vectors to target neurological diseases.

According to GlobalData’s report “Cell & Gene Therapies in CNS Disorders,” currently marketed gene therapies target rare or orphan monogenic diseases.
