Develops small-molecule cystic fibrosis therapies that stabilize NBD1 and pair with complementary CFTR modulators. SION-719 is no longer advancing as an add-on after missing its Phase 2a activity endpoint; next steps for the preferred SION-451 and SION-2222 dual combination remain under evaluation, leaving the business pre-commercial and dependent on clinical validation.
Develops small-molecule cystic fibrosis therapies that stabilize NBD1, the CFTR protein domain where the common F508del mutation disrupts folding and channel function. Its portfolio pairs NBD1 stabilizers SION-451 and SION-719 with complementary modulators SION-2222, SION-109, SION-2851, and SION-3067. Structure-guided discovery and a human bronchial epithelial model guide compound selection.
Clinical priorities changed after SION-719 missed the key activity endpoint in its Phase 2a add-on trial and was dropped from that path. A healthy-volunteer trial met safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic objectives for SION-451 combinations; SION-451 plus SION-2222 was selected as the preferred dual combination, with next steps under evaluation.
Based in Massachusetts, the business holds worldwide commercial rights but has no product revenue or commercial organization. Progress depends on clinical validation, regulatory approval, licensed complementary-modulator rights, and third-party manufacturing.
