In the field of biomedicine, therapeutic oligonucleotides represent a real revolution. These synthetic DNA or RNA molecules are designed to interact with genetic material and regulate, inhibit or correct the expression of specific genes. Their precision and efficacy have opened the door to treatments that, until recently , were unthinkable, especially for rare diseases, until […]
The psychological and emotional implications of living with a rare disease Living with a rare disease is a reality that goes beyond the physical symptoms . goes beyond the physical symptoms. These conditions , which affect a small percentage of the population , can have a profound impact on the psychological and emotional state of […]
In medical research, there are several types of clinical trials that are designed according to the objective of the study and the nature of the treatment to be evaluated. On the other hand, clinical trials are fundamental to precision medicine, as they allow the efficacy and safety of personalised treatments to be rigorously and systematically […]
Molecular biology has revolutionised our understanding of life and opened up a world of possibilities in scientific research and medical diagnosis. One of the most widely used techniques in this field is quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR), which combines the accuracy of DNA amplification with the ability to quantify the results in real time. The possibilities […]
At OLIGOFASTX, we are dedicated to the development and research of therapeutic oligonucleotides for rare diseases seeking advances in personalised medicine, where each patient can receive treatments specifically designed for their unique genetic needs. Therefore, we strongly believe in the power of multidisciplinary research profiles to drive the development of personalised therapies by combining expertise […]
In a leap year like the current one, where 29 February takes on a special significance, we are pleased to reaffirm our commitment to the development of innovative therapies for rare diseases. At OLIGOFASTX, we are proud to join in the commemoration of World Rare Disease Day, an iconic date that reminds us of the […]
In the field of medicine, orphan drugs have stood out as silent heroes, bringing hope to those facing rare and neglected diseases. The term “orphan drugs” was first coined in the 1980s in the United States. The designation is given to drugs intended for the treatment of rare diseases, defined as those affecting 1 in […]
