    ABOUT AURA:
    Aura Biosciences is a clinical stage oncology company.

    We are developing a novel technology platform based on virus-like drug conjugates (VDCs) to target and destroy cancer cells selectively, while activating the immune system to create long lasting anti-tumor immunity.


    We have a goal of developing this technology in multiple cancer indications, focusing initially on two therapeutic areas - ocular oncology and bladder cancer - with a goal to expand into other areas of solid tumor oncology.

    We are in Phase 3 with our lead VDC AU-011 in choroidal melanoma. We are also in development in non-muscle invasive and muscle invasive bladder cancer, currently in a Phase 1 trial.


    We have commenced a global Phase 3 program investigating the delivery of AU-011 for the treatment of small choroidal melanoma and indeterminate lesions.
