mRNA TECHNOLOGY

mRNA TECHNOLOGY PROVIDES CUTTING EDGE INNOVATION'

Merlin's core technology is exploiting the clinically proven delivery of therapeutic and preventive proteins to the human body by encoding their sequence into messenger RNA, encapsulating the mRNA into lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and administering the drug product to enable the target protein to be translated for the therapeutic or preventive effect.

mrna is well studied and has become a
therapeutic hotspot after recent FDA approvals

mRNA HAS THE POTENTIAL TO TREAT A
WIDE RANGE OF DISEASES

Our technology is used in 3 immunotherapy applications: oncology therapeutics, chronic hepatitis B therapies, and a preventative Lyme vaccine. Merlin is seeking to treat diseases that currently have few effective therapies with our novel mRNA-based targets.

mRNA produces immuno-activating
molecules against cancer.
