2026 the Year for Frizzle Treatment

But only with your support!

  • Our goal is to begin treating Frizzle patients by September of this year with a one-time gene replacement therapy.

  • We have a clear plan, committed partners, and a defined timeline. What remains is raising the funds needed to bring this treatment across the finish line and into patients.

  • We must raise $4 million to cover both the manufacturing of the drug and the costs of treating patients in a clinical trial.

  • Every donation goes directly toward changing lives and changing the world!

Pre-clinical Data shows Restoration of Function

Our pre-clinical research on FRRS1L mouse models showed the recovery of function through gene replacement therapy. The gene replacement therapy given to FRRS1L diseased mice worked to bring function back to FRRS1L diseased mice brains and bodies! This is life changing news! We want recover for Frizzle patients and are working to get treatment developed this year. Would you join us in making treatment a reality for sick Frizzle patients this year?

Treatment by September 2026 is possible with your support!

Our race to treatment has begun. We have a goal to begin treating Frizzle patients by Sept. 2026, but it will only happen with your support! Donate today to help fund the manufacturing of the drug that will be a one time injection for Frizzle patients!

All donations are tax deductible, and go directly to fund the development of FRRS1L gene therapy treatment. Your gift will help ALL children with FRRS1L. That is older children who have lost hope, younger children who haven’t yet regressed, and unborn children who will inherit this disorder. This research also moves forward the science that may result in cures for other genetic diseases.

It wasn't always like this for children with FRRS1L gene disorder.

Before the disorder took full effect, parents knew and saw their children to be busy toddlers. FRRS1L is a critical brain encoding gene that affects all cells in the brain. Children with this gene disorder develop, albeit delayed, until age two when they begin having seizural activity that causes regression and total loss of function.

Within weeks children lose their ability to move, speak, eat, and control their body.

We see these children looking at a toy they once held. We know they want to play with it, but they physically can’t. They are trapped.
