Sensible Biotechnologies GTM brain

Sensible Biotechnologies develops a cell-based mRNA design and manufacturing platform for therapeutic developers.

category

mRNA design and biomanufacturing

market profile

  • text: mRNA therapeutic developers must manage impurities and immune activation that can constrain repeat dosing.
  • text: Clinical-grade manufacturing depends on specialized inputs and scale-up, creating supply-chain and production risks.

personas

  • title: Head of RNA Therapeutics R&D
    pains:
    • Candidate RNA triggers unwanted immune response
    • Sequence design and screening slow the search for viable therapies
  • title: VP Process Development or CMC
    pains:
    • Moving RNA production toward clinical grade requires robust manufacturing and quality controls
    • Multiple specialized inputs create supply vulnerability
  • title: Biotech business development leader
    pains:
    • Needs a differentiated RNA platform and a partner able to support development and scale
    • Must assess intellectual property and technical risk before a partnership

icp

  • text: Biotech and pharmaceutical organizations developing mRNA medicines, particularly programs requiring repeat dosing.
  • text: RNA platform teams evaluating linear, circular or self-amplifying modalities and manufacturing partners.

message pillars

  • text: Integrate design and manufacturing in a cell-based platform.
  • text: Address purity and immune response for therapeutic use.
  • text: Support multiple RNA formats.

objections

  • objection: Will cell-made RNA meet our clinical manufacturing requirements?
    response: Review process development, analytical comparability and clinical-grade readiness with the team for the specific program; the platform is still being scaled.
  • objection: We already have an IVT process and established suppliers.
    response: Compare impurity, dosing and supply-chain tradeoffs with side-by-side program-specific data before switching.

Founders

  • name: Miroslav Gasparek
    title: Founder
    role: Founder
    bio: I am Miro, CEO and Co-Founder of Sensible Biotechnologies. We build a cell-based platform for cost-efficient and scalable production of high-quality mRNA to unlock next generation of mRNA medicines. My background is in computational modeling of biological systems and bioengineering. I have worked on developing Slovak national biosecurity policies - I am passionate about building biotech ecosystem in Eastern Europe. I studied Bioengineering at Imperial College London and Engineering at Oxford.
  • name: Marian Kupculak
    title: Founder
    role: Founder
    bio: I am Marian, the Chief Scientific Officer and co-founder of Sensible Biotechnologies. We are building a new platform for cost-efficient and scalable manufacturing of high-quality mRNA. I have more than 9 year of experience in biochemistry and molecular biology, more specifically in cellular engineering and downstream processing. I am interesting in engineering cells to produce high-quality proteins and nucleic acids. I did my PhD in Biochemistry at the University of Oxford, UK.
