CRISPR Cas-9 System Doubles Life Expectancy in Mice with Aggressive Cancers

The Pharma Data

Scientists in Israel have used the CRISPR Cas-9 gene editing system to destroy cancerous cells in mice without damaging other cells. The product is the most advanced gene-editing approach in development for transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia (TDT) and severe sickle cell disease. Photo courtesy of Science Advances.
