Overview
Emvena Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing placenta-targeted mRNA medicines for serious maternal and fetal conditions. Founded in 2026 based on research from the University of Pennsylvania, our lead program focuses on preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy complication with no approved therapy that treats the underlying disease. By restoring healthy blood vessel growth in the placenta, we aim to address the condition at its source and move beyond symptom management, with the potential to improve outcomes for both mother and baby.
