Context

GENSIGHT is a clinical-stage biotechnology company discovering and developing novel therapies for neurodegenerative retinal diseases and diseases of the central nervous system.

GENSIGHT’s pipeline leverages two core technology platforms: Mitochondrial Targeting Sequence (MTS) and optogenetics, to help preserve or restore vision in patients suffering from severe degenerative retinal diseases.

The company’s lead product candidate, GS010 (LUMEVOQ), is in Phase III trials for Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON), a rare mitochondrial disease that leads to irreversible vision loss in teens and young adults. GenSight is well positioned to capitalize on addressing LHON as the first gene therapy (GTx) for the condition, and only the fifth potentially approved gene therapy. GENSIGHT recently submitted a European Marketing Authorization Application for LUMEVOQ in Europe.

Follow-on Offering proceeds will be mainly used to actively prepare the commercial launch of LUMEVOQ in Europe and finance the end of the clinical development necessary for the filing of a Biologics License Application (BLA) in the US; and to prepare a Phase III clinical trial of GS030 for the treatment of Retinitis Pigmentosa.
