SAN DIEGO– n-Lorem, a nonprofit foundation, is collaborating with Cytiva, a global life sciences leader, in support of n-Lorem’s effort to discover and provide experimental antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) medicines to nano-rare disease patients (1 to 30 patients worldwide) for free, for life.

“On behalf of our patients and their families, we offer a heartfelt thank you to the leadership and employees of Cytiva for such a generous donation,” said Stanley T. Crooke, M.D., Ph.D., Founder, CEO and Chairman of n-Lorem Foundation. “Decreasing costs and increasing efficiency and speed at all points in the drug discovery, development and manufacturing processes translates to a significant reduction in per-patient costs, which makes our non-profit model feasible. Without partners, like Cytiva, who share our mission and commitment to helping as many nano-rare patients as we can, we would not be able to discover, develop and provide ASO medicines to nano-rare patients for free for life.”

“At Cytiva, our mission is to advance and accelerate therapeutics. n-Lorem is offering this type of personalized experimental ASO therapy to patients with few therapeutic options for free, for life,” said Dirk Voekel, Chief Innovation Officer from Cytiva. “As leaders in bringing speed, efficiency and capacity to research and manufacturing workflows, we are delighted to be able to support the manufacturing of transformative ASO medicines to nano-rare patients.” (IANS)
