ABOUT US

LEXEO Therapeutics is a New York City-based clinical-stage gene therapy company focused on addressing some of the most devastating genetically defined cardiovascular and central nervous system diseases. We are advancing a deep and diverse pipeline of AAV-based gene therapy candidates utilizing a modular approach designed to overcome many of the challenges facing the field of gene therapy. We apply cutting-edge science to target the underlying causes of diseases affecting both larger-rare and prevalent patient populations.

LEXEO’s current pipeline consists of adeno-associated virus AAV-based gene therapies for rare cardiovascular diseases, APOE4-associated Alzheimer’s disease, and CLN2 Batten disease. LEXEO was founded based on a well-established gene therapy research legacy at Weill Cornell Medicine’s Department of Genetic Medicine by a team of pioneering scientists, clinicians, and business leaders with deep expertise in gene therapy.
