About RhyGaze

Founded in 2024 and based in Basel, Switzerland, RhyGaze AG focuses on gene therapy solutions designed to enhance vision. RhyGaze AG develops a gene therapy specifically for restoring vision in patients suffering from blinding retinal diseases through cone optogenetics. The company’s core product involves delivering a novel light-sensor gene to cone cells in the retina, which are crucial for high-acuity vision. The therapy aims to enhance light detection capabilities in these cells, with primary users being individuals affected by retinal conditions. RhyGaze is transitioning its gene therapy to a third-party manufacturer while preparing for human clinical trials, targeting regions with a prevalence of retinal diseases such as Europe and North America. The company’s revenue model includes partnerships with pharmaceutical companies and healthcare providers, focusing on B2B transactions as it prepares to commercialize its gene therapy solutions.
