Moderna partners with Life Edit for mRNA gene editing therapies

Pharmaceutical Technology

Moderna has entered a strategic research and development partnership with ElevateBio’s Life Edit Therapeutics to discover and develop new in-vivo mRNA gene editing therapies. The company’s nuclease collection includes several Protospacer Adjacent Motifs (PAMs), short sequences that help determine the genome’s DNA segments.

Leading innovators in transgenic murine models for the pharmaceutical industry

Pharmaceutical Technology

Within the emerging innovation stage, cell therapy for ocular disorders, coronavirus vaccine components, and DNA polymerase compositions are disruptive technologies that are in the early stages of application and should be tracked closely. However, not all innovations are equal and nor do they follow a constant upward trend.

Gene editing: beyond the hype

pharmaphorum

Cutting edge’ is, for once, a truly apt description when it comes to gene editing – both because the field is pushing medicine into areas we might never have dreamed possible, and because these technologies involve literally cutting DNA at a specific point in the genome. Zinc fingers. billion in funding.

Spotlighting Lupus Awareness Month: CAR-T Technology Creates New Avenues for Treatment of a Devastating Disease

WCG Clinical

CAR-T Cells Target Harmful B Cells in Lupus CAR-T cell technology, which uses genetic engineering to direct white blood cells to attack specific molecular targets, was originally proposed for treatment of HIV infection and hematological malignancies. In these cases B cell depletion is a feature, not a bug.

Overcoming diverging regulatory expectations to bring CGTs to market

Drug Discovery World

For example, the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) 3 , which regulates biological products for human use, differentiates between in vivo gene therapy (new genes are inserted into the body to target cells) and ex vivo gene therapy (cells are modified outside the body and then administered back into the patient).

Delveinsight

Beam Therapeutics has taken over a startup whose technology could proffer the biotech’s genetic medicines to more tissues in the body, widening the potential to approach more diseases. The gene-editing technologies, which have reached the clinic, CRISPR, zinc finger nucleases, and TALENs, make their edits by nicking DNA at the target site.
