About

SpliSense is an Israeli clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing transformative RNA-based treatments for unmet needs relating to cystic fibrosis (CF) and other genetic pulmonary illnesses. The company's pioneering platform harnesses Antisense Oligonucleotides (ASOs) to target the root cause of diseases by overcoming specific genetic mutations and modulating protein expression and function. Their technology is based on the research of Prof. Batsheva Kerem from the Hebrew University. SpliSense's pipeline includes innovative therapies in various stages, from discovery to clinical phase, with a lead inhaled ASO therapy, SPL84, for cystic fibrosis. The company has robust, diverse IP protecting its technologies and programs. SpliSense utilizes IP-protected algorithms to support the design and optimization of ASOs for efficiency and safety, including reducing the potential of off-target and immunogenic effects. SpliSense's inhaled ASOs are delivered locally and non-invasively to the lungs with minimal systemic exposure.
