About Silence Therapeutics
Silence Therapeutics is developing a new generation of medicines
by harnessing the body's natural mechanism of RNA interference, or
RNAi, to inhibit the expression of specific target genes thought to
play a role in the pathology of diseases with significant unmet
need. Silence's proprietary mRNAi GOLD™ platform can be used to
create siRNAs (short interfering RNAs) that precisely target and
silence disease-associated genes in the liver, which represents a
substantial opportunity. Silence's wholly owned product candidates
include SLN360 designed to address the high and prevalent unmet
medical need in reducing cardiovascular risk in people born with
high levels of lipoprotein(a) and SLN124 designed to address rare
hematological diseases. Silence also maintains ongoing research and
development collaborations with AstraZeneca, Mallinckrodt
Pharmaceuticals, and Hansoh Pharma, among others. For more
