About Mirna Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:MIRN)

Mirna Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of micro ribonucleic acid (RNA)-based oncology therapeutics. The Company is developing mimics of naturally occurring microRNAs that are designed to restore the tumor suppressor activity and aid appropriate anti-tumor immune response. This approach is known as microRNA replacement therapy. Its lead product candidate, MRX34, a mimic of naturally occurring microRNA-34 (miR-34) encapsulated in a liposomal nanoparticle formulation, has demonstrated clinical proof of concept as a single agent in its ongoing Phase I clinical trial. The Company’s RNA molecules function as natural microRNAs when they enter human cells. These RNA molecules, which it calls microRNA mimics, may be used to replace those tumor suppressor microRNAs that are lost, or under expressed, in cancer cells. Its other preclinical product candidates include miR-215, miR-101, miR-16 and let-7.
