Company Overview

Silence Therapeutics plc is a biotechnology company focused on developing medicines that use small interfering RNA (siRNA) to selectively reduce the production of disease-related proteins. Its proprietary mRNAi GOLD platform is designed to identify and silence specific messenger RNA targets, with the aim of producing durable effects from infrequent dosing.

The company’s pipeline includes zerlasiran, formerly known as SLN360, an investigational therapy designed to reduce production of lipoprotein(a), a genetically determined risk factor associated with cardiovascular disease. Silence is also developing additional RNA interference programs for conditions including hematologic and metabolic disorders. These candidates remain investigational and are subject to clinical and regulatory evaluation.

Silence Therapeutics was established in the United Kingdom and has operations serving the international biotechnology and pharmaceutical markets. The company advances its own pipeline and has pursued collaborations and licensing arrangements intended to apply its RNAi platform to additional therapeutic targets. Its American Depositary Shares trade on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol SLN.
