The company’s technology platform, known as Antibody Oligonucleotide Conjugates (AOCs), combines the targeting capabilities of antibodies with oligonucleotide-based medicines designed to act on RNA inside specific cells. Avidity’s research programs are primarily directed at serious muscle diseases, including myotonic dystrophy type 1, facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy and Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Its pipeline has included delpacibart etedesiran, also known as AOC 1001, an investigational therapy designed to deliver an oligonucleotide to skeletal and cardiac muscle for the treatment of myotonic dystrophy type 1. The company is also advancing additional AOC-based candidates intended to address genetic disorders affecting muscle tissue. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in San Diego, California, Avidity conducts discovery, development and clinical-stage activities primarily in the United States.
