Tenaya Therapeutics develops therapies intended to address underlying causes of heart disease, with a clinical-stage pipeline led by TN-201 and TN-401 gene therapies. TN-201 is an AAV9-based gene therapy for MYBPC3-associated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and TN-401 targets PKP2-associated arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
Company news commonly covers clinical data from the MyPEAK-1 and RIDGE-1 studies, financial results, cardiovascular research collaborations, and preclinical work supporting TN-301, a highly selective HDAC6 inhibitor studied for heart failure and related cardio/muscular disease. Updates also reference Tenaya’s target identification and validation capabilities, including iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes, engineered heart tissue models and in vivo disease models.
Tenaya Therapeutics (Nasdaq: TNYA) has announced the pricing of a public offering of 75,000,000 units at $0.70 per unit, aiming to raise gross proceeds of approximately $52.5 million before deducting underwriting costs and expenses.
Each unit consists of one common stock share, a Series A Warrant (exercise price $0.80, 5-year expiration), and a Series B Warrant (exercise price $0.70, expires June 30, 2026) to purchase half a share. The offering is expected to close around March 5, 2025.
The clinical-stage biotech company plans to use the net proceeds to fund ongoing and planned development of clinical and early-stage product candidates, particularly TN-201 and TN-401, along with working capital and general corporate purposes. Leerink Partners and Piper Sandler are serving as joint book-running managers for the offering.

Tenaya Therapeutics (NASDAQ: TNYA) has received an $8 million CLIN2 grant from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) to support its ongoing RIDGE-1 Phase 1b clinical trial of TN-401 gene therapy. The therapy is being developed to treat PKP2-associated arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), a severe progressive disease affecting approximately 70,000 people in the U.S.
TN-401 is designed as a one-time intravenous gene replacement therapy using AAV9 capsid to deliver functional PKP2 genes into heart muscle cells, addressing the underlying cause of the disease. The RIDGE-1 trial is currently enrolling symptomatic adults with PKP2-associated ARVC, with initial data from the low-dose cohort expected in the second half of 2025.
Tenaya Therapeutics (NASDAQ: TNYA) has outlined its strategic priorities for 2025, focusing on advancing its gene therapy programs. The company has initiated dosing in Cohort 2 of the MyPEAK-1 Phase 1b/2 clinical trial of TN-201 for MYBPC3-Associated Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, with additional Cohort 1 data expected in 1H25.
Initial data from Cohort 1 showed TN-201 was generally well-tolerated at 3E13 vg/kg dose, with detectable vector DNA and transgene RNA expression in the first two patients. The company plans to complete Cohort 2 enrollment in 1H25 and provide initial data in 2H25.
For the TN-401 program targeting PKP2-Associated ARVC, Tenaya expects to complete Cohort 1 enrollment in 1H25 and report initial clinical data in 2H25. The company also plans to activate its first ex-U.S. RIDGE-1 clinical site in 1H25.
Tenaya Therapeutics (NASDAQ: TNYA) has reported promising early data from the first cohort of the MyPEAK-1 Phase 1b/2 clinical trial of TN-201, a gene therapy for MYBPC3-associated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The trial's preliminary results from three patients at the 3E13 vg/kg dose showed that TN-201 was generally well-tolerated with:
- Detectable vector DNA in the heart
- Evidence of transgene RNA expression
- Increasing TN-201 mRNA and MyBP-C protein levels over time
- Stable or improved circulating biomarkers of cardiac muscle strain and injury
The first patient reached 52 weeks, the second 40 weeks, and the third 12 weeks of follow-up. Additional data readouts from Cohort 1 and the higher dose Cohort 2 are expected in 2025.
Tenaya Therapeutics (NASDAQ: TNYA) announced it will present initial data from Cohort 1 of the MyPEAK-1 Phase 1b/2 clinical trial of TN-201 gene therapy for MYBPC3-associated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) on December 17, 2024. The company will host a conference call and webcast at 8:00 a.m. ET to discuss the results. The presentation will be accessible through the company's website, with a replay available afterward in the Investor Relations section.
Tenaya Therapeutics (NASDAQ: TNYA) has dosed the first patient in its RIDGE-1 Phase 1b clinical trial of TN-401, a gene therapy treatment for PKP2-Associated Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC). The trial, currently enrolling at six U.S. centers, will assess safety and efficacy of a one-time intravenous infusion in up to fifteen adults with PKP2-associated ARVC. TN-401 uses AAV9 capsid to deliver functional PKP2 genes to heart cells, aiming to address the underlying cause of the disease. Initial clinical data is expected in 2025. The first dose being tested is 3E13 vg/kg, which showed near maximal efficacy in preclinical studies.
Tenaya Therapeutics (NASDAQ: TNYA) has granted stock options to two new non-executive employees as employment inducements.
