Date:6/25/2012

GAITHERSBURG, Md., June 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Sirnaomics, Inc. (www.sirnaomics.com) announced today that the company has been awarded another NIH SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) grant for developing its small interfering RNA (siRNA) therapeutic product STP705 to improve skin wound healing with minimized scar formation.  This funding will further enhance the company's effort for perfection of its nanoparticle-based siRNA delivery systems and speed up the IND enabling studies for STP705.  Sirnaomics' multi-targeted siRNA therapeutics utilizing its nanoparticle delivery technologies represents a unique approach for realizing the advantage of siRNA-based drugs. Since its establishment, Sirnaomics has been successfully awarded five NIH SBIR grants in addition to other government grant funding. 

Sirnaomics is a leading biopharmaceutical company in the discovery and development of siRNA therapeutics.  The company's mission is to advance siRNA therapeutics by using its proprietary multi-targeted siRNA design and screening together with nanoparticle-mediated siRNA delivery vehicles.  Through in-house efforts and collaborations, Sirnaomics has developed nanoparticle-based siRNA delivery systems in three generations: the self-assembled nanoparticles (1st), the ligand-directed nanoparticles (2nd)  and the infrared-activated nanoparticles (3rd), for various types of therapeutic applications.  Based on these two technology platforms, Sirnaomics has developed an enriched pipeline of siRNA therapeutic product candidates, including STP705 for improvement of skin wound healing with minimized scar formation, STP601 for treatment of ocular AMD/diabetic retinopathy, STP702 for treatment of respiratory influenza viral infection, STP909 for treatment of HPV infection/cervical cancer, and candidates for several other therapeutic indications.
