AskBio Inc. is a biotechnology research company focused on gene therapy, operating as a wholly owned subsidiary of Bayer AG. It pursues a fully integrated approach to developing life-saving medicines, supported by a clinical program spanning neuromuscular, central nervous system, cardiovascular, and metabolic diseases. Its pipeline includes candidates for congestive heart failure, limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, multiple system atrophy, Parkinson’s disease, and Pompe disease. The company relies on a manufacturing and development platform built around a proprietary cell-line process and an extensive library of capsids and promoters to enable its therapies. It is based in North Carolina, with global headquarters in Research Triangle Park and a European headquarters in Edinburgh, Scotland, reflecting its international scope. A recent development includes dosing the first participant in PROGRESS-GT LOPD, a Phase 1/2 trial evaluating AB-1009 for late-onset Pompe disease, marking progress toward a potentially durable gene therapy approach.
