DUAL-USE INNOVATION

Precision Therapeutics
Maverick Bio

At Maverick Bio, we develop precision therapeutics at the intersection of synthetic biology and national defense. As AI reshapes drug discovery, we're redefining drug utility—building dual-use therapies that solve high-stakes challenges for warfighters and unlock massive civilian markets.

Key Features

  • • Field-deployable therapeutic solutions
  • • Strong IP protection and scalability
  • • Near-market asset development
  • • AI-driven drug discovery optimization

STRATEGIC POSITIONING

Defense + Biotech
Convergence

We operate at the convergence of defense, biotech, and health security—a space where global demand is rising and traditional pharma hasn't yet caught up. Our synthesis planning approach ensures rapid deployment capabilities.

Market Advantages

  • • Non-dilutive DoD partnerships
  • • Expedited commercial pathways
  • • Trauma, obesity, overdose prevention markets
  • • Optimized synthesis routes for field deployment

THERAPEUTIC PIPELINE

Field-Ready
Biotechnologies

Our pipeline spans gene therapies that regenerate muscle in days, antibody-based countermeasures to fentanyl-class chemical threats, and orally delivered metabolic peptides—all field-deployable, scalable, and protected by strong IP. Our automated systems ensure consistent quality and rapid production.

Pipeline Highlights

  • • MVR-101: IGF-1 Gene Therapy (Automated synthesis)
  • • MVR-201: Anti-Fentanyl mAb (Robotic production)
  • • MVR-301+: Buccal PYY Analogs (High-throughput screening)
  • • Continuous DMTA cycle optimization

Target / PathwayIGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1) Signaling
Therapeutic AreasMuscular Atrophy & Performance Enhancement
Hit DiscoveryHit-to-LeadLead OptimizationPreclinical Candidate

IGF-1 Gene Therapy for Muscle Growth and Recovery

IGF-1 plays a key role in muscle hypertrophy, repair, and vascularization. Our AAV9-based therapy delivers IGF-1 selectively to skeletal muscle via systemic injection—activating local growth without elevating systemic hormone levels.

In early human testing, visible hypertrophy occurred within 7 days, with no heart or liver uptake and minimal side effects. MVR-101, our lead candidate, is a muscle-specific AAV9-IGF1 construct with a clean safety profile, field-ready dosing format, and rapid therapeutic onset.

Timeline: Preclinical-to-clinical transition planned for 2025, with DoD partnership providing non-dilutive funding pathway.

Target / PathwayCirculating Fentanyl-Class Opioid Neutralization
Therapeutic AreasChemical Threat Exposure & Overdose Prevention
Hit DiscoveryHit-to-LeadLead OptimizationPreclinical Candidate

Monoclonal Antibody for Fentanyl Prophylaxis

Fentanyl and its analogs are among the most potent synthetic opioids ever developed, posing both public health and battlefield chemical threats. Our long-acting antibody neutralizes fentanyl molecules in the bloodstream before they can bind to CNS receptors.

It has demonstrated protection against carfentanil at 10x lethal dose equivalents in vivo, while maintaining full compatibility with naloxone for emergency reversal. MVR-201 is engineered for ultrahigh affinity (Kd ~70 pM) and 95–98% fentanyl capture post-exposure.

Timeline: Preclinical studies ongoing; IND-enabling studies projected for late 2025.

Target / PathwayNeuropeptide Y (PYY) Y2 Receptor Activation
Therapeutic AreasObesity & Metabolic Syndrome
Hit DiscoveryHit-to-LeadLead OptimizationPreclinical Candidate

Buccal PYY Analog for Y2R Activation

Peptide YY₃₋₃₆ acts on the Y2 receptor to signal satiety, but suffers from poor stability and off-target effects. Our novel PYY analog is optimized for buccal (oral mucosal) delivery, engineered from canonical amino acids for Y2 selectivity.

It avoids immunogenicity and can be produced in GRAS-certified microbial hosts. MVR-301, 302, 305 show superior Y2R binding, enhanced half-life under physiological conditions, and minimal off-target activity at Y1/Y5 receptors.

Timeline: In-silico candidate screening complete; in vitro validation underway with field deployment optimization.
