Beacon Therapeutics

aid: beacon-therapeutics
name: Beacon Therapeutics
description: Beacon Therapeutics is a clinical-stage ophthalmic gene therapy company founded in 2023 to save and restore the
  sight of people living with rare and prevalent retinal diseases that lead to blindness. Built around adeno-associated virus
  (AAV) gene therapy, the company delivers functional copies of mutated genes into retinal cells so the body can produce the
  missing therapeutic protein. Its lead clinical program, laru-zova (laruparetigene zovaparvovec), targets X-linked retinitis
  pigmentosa (XLRP), alongside preclinical programs in dry age-related macular degeneration (dAMD) and cone-rod dystrophy
  (CRD), the latter in-licensed from the University of Oxford. Beacon operates across the United Kingdom and the United States,
  with a corporate base in London and a US presence in the Cambridge, Massachusetts area. It is a therapeutics developer,
  not a software or data platform company, and publishes no public API, SDK or developer program.

  detail: Beacon Therapeutics is a clinical-stage AAV gene therapy developer whose entire public surface is a 14-page WordPress
    marketing site (pipeline, clinical trials, disease focus, careers) — /developers, /api, /openapi.json, /llms.txt and every
    /.well-known/ path return a hard 404, and the product is a retinal therapeutic, not software.
