About Miragen Therapeutics, Inc.
Miragen Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company discovering and developing proprietary RNA-targeted
therapeutics with a specific focus on microRNAs and their role in diseases where there is a high unmet medical need.
miRagen’s two lead product candidates, MRG-106 and MRG-201, are currently in Phase 1 clinical trials. miRagen’s clinical
product candidate for the treatment of certain cancers, MRG-106, is an inhibitor of microRNA-155, which is found at abnormally high
levels in several blood cancers. miRagen’s clinical product candidate for the treatment of pathological fibrosis, MRG-201, is
a replacement for miR-29, which is found at abnormally low levels in a number of pathological fibrotic conditions, including
cardiac, renal, hepatic, and pulmonary fibrosis, as well as systemic sclerosis. In addition to miRagen’s clinical programs,
it is developing a pipeline of pre-clinical product candidates. The goal of miRagen’s translational medicine strategy is to
progress rapidly to first in human studies once it has established the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and safety of the product
candidate in pre-clinical studies. For more information, please visit www.miragentherapeutics.com.
