Talk
Potentially BIC Gene Editing Product for ATTR
Our clinical data indicated that AccurEdits leading pipeline product (ART001) has the potential to be the best-in-class in vivo gene editing product for ATTR with 90% serum TTR reduction after 4 weeks, no off-target editing or DNA translocation at up to 80 times EC90, and no infusion-related reactions.
Emerging Therapeutics Showcase:
AccurEdit Therapeuti
AccurEdit Therapeutics has established an end-to-end in vivo gene editing platform and has become the first and only company to demonstrate safe and effective systemic CRISPR gene editing in humans in China.
Session Abstract – PMWC 2024 Silicon Valley
The PMWC 2024 Emerging Therapeutics Showcase will provide a 15-minute time slot for selected companies and researchers in the CRISPR, Cell and Gene Therapy fields. Major advancements in safer cell- and gene-level editing technologies are bringing us closer toward cures for life-threatening disorders, from cancer to HIV to Huntington’s disease. Cell therapy, in which cellular material such as T cells capable of fighting cancer cells, is injected into a patient, has been demonstrated safe and effective. The popular new CRISPR tool that has been used to edit the genetic code of nearly any organism will have an enormous impact on human health. More than a dozen clinical trials employing CRISPR on human cells are already underway.
