MiRecule, a biotech startup, has partnered with Sanofi to develop an RNA therapy for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), a rare muscle disorder with no FDA-approved treatments. The company’s platform, DREAmiR, identifies genetic drivers of disease to design RNA therapies. MiRecule also has a head and neck cancer therapeutic candidate, MC-30, which aims to restore tumor suppressing activity lost in some patients. The partnership with Sanofi has brought in $30 million in upfront payments and could earn up to $400 million more. MiRecule is seeking additional funding to support its current programs and develop new ones for other diseases.
