## What Benitec Biopharma does

Benitec Biopharma Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company headquartered in Hayward, California, focused on novel genetic medicines. Its lead product candidate, BB-301, is an AAV-based gene therapy for oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy, or OPMD, a chronic, life-threatening genetic disorder. BB-301 is designed to permanently silence the disease-causing gene and simultaneously replace the mutant gene with a functional gene, an approach the company calls silence and replace. The underlying platform, DNA-directed RNA interference, or ddRNAi, combines RNA interference with viral delivery agents typically associated with gene therapy. BB-301 has Orphan Drug Designation and Fast Track Designation in the United States and Orphan Drug Designation in the European Union. The Investigational New Drug application for BB-301 was approved to proceed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in June 2023, and the first study subject was treated in the BB-301 Phase 1b/2a clinical trial in November 2023. The company says it will require additional financing to progress its product candidates through future inflection points.

| Product or program | What it is | Stage |
|---|---|---|
| BB-301 | AAV-based silence and replace gene therapy for OPMD-derived dysphagia | Phase 1b/2a clinical trial |
| ddRNAi platform | DNA-directed RNA interference combined with AAV viral vectors |  |
