eGenesis vs Karius
Side-by-side comparison of AI visibility scores, market position, and capabilities
FDA-cleared IND for CRISPR-edited pig kidney (ESKD Phase 1/2/3). First patient dialysis-free at 7+ months post-transplant. 69-gene-edited pig — most complex CRISPR ever.
About
eGenesis is developing gene-edited pig organs for human transplantation — xenotransplantation — using a 69-gene CRISPR editing protocol that simultaneously knocks out pig genes that trigger human rejection, adds human immune tolerance genes, and eliminates porcine endogenous retroviruses. The company received FDA clearance for its IND for EIGEN-2784 (a gene-edited pig kidney) for end-stage kidney disease, and its first transplant patient remained dialysis-free at more than 7 months post-transplant — the longest reported survival for a xenotransplantation recipient.
Karius raised $409M total including a $100M Series C in May 2024; its genomic blood test detects 1,000+ pathogens at 400+ U.S. hospitals; launched Karius Focus BAL for pneumonia in April 2025.
About
Karius is a Redwood City, CA-based life sciences company founded in 2014 that developed the Karius Test — a single blood draw that uses next-generation sequencing and AI to detect over 1,000 pathogens (bacteria, fungi, viruses, parasites) in seriously ill patients. The test is used when conventional cultures and targeted diagnostics fail, providing clinicians at transplant centers, children''s hospitals, and ICUs with a comprehensive pathogen report within 24 hours.
