01

Overview

The company's lead program was zuretinol acetate, an oral synthetic retinoid for rare inherited retinal diseases such as LCA and RP caused by RPE65 or LRAT mutations. Zuretinol showed promise as a non-surgical alternative to gene therapy for these conditions. In January 2022, Eluminex Biosciences acquired the global rights to zuretinol from Retinagenix. The program's further development now resides with Eluminex[3][4][5].

Another related asset, BBP‑551, originated from the same scientific lineage and was advanced by BridgeBio subsidiary "Retinagenix Therapeutics," but this appears to be a separate entity or licensing arrangement[6].

As of early/mid‑2020s, there are no active clinical programs under the original "Retinagenix" entities; their main asset has been divested/discontinued.

Pipeline breadth before acquisition/discontinuation was one main clinical program.

No current commercial products.
