My enthusiasm has grown as I’ve seen our partnered programs advance into the clinic and as we produce highly differentiated proprietary preclinical projects. I want to express my deep gratitude for Alexander’s success in growing our platform and progressing our lead program SECN-15, as well as his dedication and tireless energy in helping us to grow and bringing us to where we are today. I very much look forward to leading Secarna in its next stage, as we deliver best-in-class oligonucleotide therapeutics that offer the possibility of transforming untreatable conditions into treatable ones and profoundly changing the future of medicine.” “I have worked very closely with Konstantin since he joined Secarna, and he has been highly successful in helping to drive the business,” said Alexander Gebauer. “With my responsibilities increasing elsewhere, it is the right time to hand over the reins. Konstantin is highly respected by our partners, customers and the Secarna team, and I am convinced Konstantin has the ability to grow Secarna’s business and advance the pipeline.
