Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as a transformative class of RNA therapeutics, distinguished by their closed-loop structure conferring nuclease resistance, reduced immunogenicity, and sustained translational activity. While challenges in pharmacokinetic control and manufacturing standardization require resolution, emerging synergies between computational design tools and modular delivery platforms are accelerating clinical translation. In this review, we synthesize recent advances in circRNA therapeutics, with a focused analysis of their stability and immunogenic properties in vaccine and drug development. Notably, key synthesis strategies, delivery platforms, and AI-driven optimization methods enabling scalable production are discussed. Moreover, we summarize preclinical and emerging clinical studies that underscore the potential of circRNA in vaccine development and protein replacement therapies. As both a promising expression vehicle and programmable regulatory molecule, circRNA represents a versatile platform poised to advance next-generation biologics and precision medicine. |
