It's not the altitude, it's the attitude.

ABOUT US

Scott Fischer (Everest)

OUR STORY

Release Tx was launched in 2023 – but our roots run deeper, going back to the foundation of some of the first preclinical & clinical studies of allogeneic encapsulated cell therapy. Our team has played a central role in the evolution of this technology from a promising idea to a potential life-transforming reality.

OUR VISION

Today, we carry forward our history of innovative science to imagine new possibilities to treat genetic disorders without gene therapy.

We are harnessing our patented encapsulated-cell platform technology distinguished by its unique CNS-directed functionality and versatile multi-application capabilities to improve the lives of patients with limited treatment alternatives and their families.
