Company History
Mirus Corporation was founded in 1995 by Drs. Jon A Wolff, James Hagstrom and Vladimir Budker, and changed its name to Mirus Bio Corporation in 2004. Mirus Bio's lead therapeutic programs were RNAi therapies based on its proprietary Dynamic PolyConjugates™ siRNA delivery platform and gene therapies utilizing its Pathway IV ™ delivery protocol. The discovery of Dynamic PolyConjugates led to the acquisition of the company by Hoffmann-La Roche in 2008 for $125 million. Concurrent with the acquisition, Roche divested the research tools division to a newly formed company, Mirus Bio LLC. In October 2011, Arrowhead Research Corporation of Pasadena CA purchased Roche Madison Inc. and acquired other RNAi IP rights owned by Roche, renaming the company Arrowhead Madison. Arrowhead changed its name to Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in 2016.
