Members of the Nanoscope Therapeutics Inc. leadership team will participate in one-on-one meetings with investors at the 2024 Leerink Partners Biopharma Private Company Connect, being held virtually on June 25-26, 2024. Participating will be CEO & Co-Founder Sulagna Bhattacharya, President & Co-Founder Samarendra Mohanty, Chief Medical Officer Samuel B Barone, MD, CFO Michael Marquez and VP Strategy & Business Development Jared Stephens. Nanoscope Therapeutics is developing gene-agnostic, sight-restoring optogenetic therapies for the millions of patients blinded by inherited retinal diseases, for which no cure exists. The company’s lead asset, MCO-010, recently announced the 100-week data from the RESTORE Phase 2b/3 multicenter, randomized, double-masked, sham-controlled clinical trial in the U.S. for retinitis pigmentosa (NCT04945772). The company has also recently completed the Phase 2 STARLIGHT trial of MCO-010 therapy in patients with Stargardt disease (NCT05417126 ). MCO-010 has received FDA fast-track designations and FDA orphan drug designations for both retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease. Preclinical assets include non-viral laser-delivered MCO-020 gene therapy for geographic atrophies secondary to AMD.

About us
Nanoscope Therapeutics is advancing gene therapy using light-sensitive molecules and light-assisted gene delivery for giving sight to the millions of blind individuals suffering from retinal degenerative disease, for which no cure exists. Nanoscope is focused on proprietary ambient light-activated optogenetic therapy to restore vision in people suffering from various inherited retinal degenerative diseases including Retinitis Pigmentosa, Stargardt, and dry AMD. Genetic retinal degenerative diseases cause vision loss as cells of the retina gradually become dysfunctional. Nanoscope’s proprietary gene therapies correct the condition by delivering light-sensitive molecules, called Multi-Characteristic Opsins (MCO), into retinal cells. Update: June, 2021: Nanoscope Therapeutics Announces FDA Approval of IND for Phase 2b clinical trial of Optogenetic Gene Monotherapy to Restore Vision in Patients with Retinitis Pigmentosa

Last week, we had the honor of hosting Biotechnology Innovation Organization CEO John F. Crowley and the BIO team at Nanoscope Therapeutics Inc. during their national “listening tour” of biotech hubs. It was a pleasure to show John around our Arlington labs and Dallas offices, where he generously met our team and shared his inspiring personal journey. Thank you, John, for the motivation and inspiration! Later, we were thrilled to host a gathering of over two dozen biotech leaders from the Dallas area. We discussed the challenges and needs of emerging biotech companies in Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas with the BIO team. The exchange of ideas for solutions and growth was incredibly valuable. A big thanks to John Crowley and the BIO team for spending time with us in Dallas!
