Quarks may be the basic building blocks of matter, but it's a fundamental unit of biology -- genes -- that Quark Biotech is interested in. The drug development company is using cutting-edge RNA interference technology to develop siRNAs, or drugs that inhibit targeted genes from producing proteins associated with certain diseases. Its lead product RTP801i-14, which it has licensed to Pfizer, aims to treat wet age-related macular degeneration (a cause of blindness in the elderly). Quark Biotech is developing other candidates for acute renal failure and hearing loss, and it has licensed BT16, a potential treatment for dyslipidemia, to Japanese drug firm Sanwa for development in Far East markets.
