Voyager Therapeutics develops genetic medicines aimed at treating neurological diseases, particularly those affecting the central nervous system like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Their approach involves using a proprietary platform that utilizes adeno-associated virus (AAV) technology to deliver genetic material directly to the brain through intravenous dosing, overcoming the challenge of the blood-brain barrier. Unlike many competitors, Voyager focuses on creating treatments that are specifically designed for neurological conditions, and they emphasize collaboration with larger pharmaceutical companies to enhance their research and development efforts. The company's goal is to provide transformative therapies that significantly improve the lives of patients suffering from severe neurological disorders.
