GVS-18-B34 is a highly potent, silicon ether-based ionizable lipid that enables efficient mRNA delivery via lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). Its key advantage lies in a biodegradable silyl ether linkage, which undergoes rapid, non-enzymatic hydrolysis, leading to near-complete clearance from the liver within 24 hours in both mice and non-human primates (NHPs). This degradation mechanism is species-agnostic, overcoming the variability associated with esterase-dependent lipids. In vivo, GVS-18-B34 LNPs demonstrated superior liver-specific protein expression and a high liver-to-spleen signal ratio, indicating minimal off-target accumulation and reduced immune stimulation compared to benchmarks like MC3 and SM-102. The LNPs exhibited excellent stability when stored frozen at -80°C, maintaining integrity over multiple freeze-thaw cycles. With its optimal pKa (~6.3) and efficient endosomal escape profile, GVS-18-B34 represents a promising candidate for therapeutic applications requiring frequent dosing, combining high potency with a favorable safety profile derived from its rapid clearance.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
