Lexeo Therapeutics is creating high-impact genetic medicines for cardiovascular diseases and APOE4-associated Alzheimer’s disease. Cardiovascular disease remains the most significant cause of morbidity and mortality in the western world and rapidly becoming a primary cause worldwide. Lexeo is developing a number of disease-modifying gene therapy candidates to treat larger-rare cardiovascular diseases. In addition, Lexeo is using their same gene therapy technology to build a pipeline of central-nervous system (CNS) focused therapies. In both the cardiac and CNS programs Lexeo is advancing their pipeline into clinical trials.
