Advancing AAV Innovation Through Collaboration

At AAVnerGene, we believe the next generation of gene therapies will be built through strong scientific partnerships. We welcome collaboration with academic laboratories, biotechnology companies, pharmaceutical organizations, research institutes, hospitals, investors, and manufacturing partners working across the AAV field.

Our team has extensive experience in choroid plexus (ChP) targeting gene therapy, AAV production, capsid engineering, vector design, process development, analytical characterization, and gene therapy research. Whether you are developing a new therapeutic program, improving an existing vector, evaluating a novel capsid, or addressing a manufacturing challenge, we are ready to explore how our technologies and expertise can support your goals.

Areas of Collaboration

Choroid Plexus (ChP)-Targeted Gene Therapy

AAVnerGene is actively seeking collaborators to develop the next generation of Choroid Plexus (ChP)-targeted gene therapies. Leveraging our proprietary AAV-ChP capsids, we aim to enable selective gene delivery to the choroid plexus following intracerebroventricular (ICV) or Intrathecal (IT) administration, opening new therapeutic opportunities for central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Our ChP-targeting platform offers a unique approach to modulating cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) composition and delivering therapeutic proteins throughout the CNS while minimizing off-target transduction of neurons and peripheral organs.

We welcome collaborations focused on:

• Alzheimer’s disease (AD)
• Parkinson’s disease (PD)
• Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
• Huntington’s disease (HD)
• Frontotemporal dementia (FTD)
• Lysosomal storage diseases
• Neurodevelopmental disorders
• Hydrocephalus
• Neuroinflammation
• Depression and psychiatric disorders
• Sleep disorders
• Rare CNS diseases
• CNS protein replacement therapies
• CSF-based biologic delivery
• Novel CNS therapeutic targets

We are interested in partnering to:

• Discover and validate new therapeutic targets for ChP-mediated gene therapy
• Evaluate therapeutic genes using AAV-ChP vectors
• Develop secreted biologics delivered through the CSF
• Perform efficacy studies in rodent and non-human primate disease models
• Optimize ICV and intrathecal (IT) delivery strategies
• Advance ChP-targeted therapeutics toward clinical development

Whether your program is at the discovery, preclinical, or translational stage, AAVnerGene is excited to explore collaborations that leverage our proprietary ChP-targeting technology to develop transformative therapies for neurological diseases.
