Korro Bio IncNASDAQ KRRO

Korro Bio, Inc. is an RNA editing company, which engages in the discovery and development of genetic medicines. The company is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts and currently employs 94 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2019-10-03. The firm discovers, develops, and commercializes genetic medicines based on editing ribonucleic acid (RNA), enabling treatment of both rare and highly prevalent diseases. The firm is generating a portfolio of differentiated programs that are designed to harness the body’s natural RNA editing process to effect a precise yet transient single base edit. By editing RNA instead of DNA, it is expanding the reach of genetic medicines. Its Oligonucleotide Promoted Editing of RNA (OPERA) is a foundational platform for RNA editing, which is designed to edit RNA in vivo by delivering an oligonucleotide guide that can target specific RNA sequences. The Company’s first development candidate, KRRO-110, is in development as a potential treatment for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD), that has the potential to be disease-modifying and provide a differentiated therapeutic option.
