All that DNA is organised into hereditary units called genes, with humans having about 25,000 genes collectively known as the genome. The Human Genome Project Launched in October 1990, The Human Genome Project sought to sequence the entire human genome using a method called Sanger sequencing.

Here he gives us a deeper look at how genomic medicine is evolving and the barriers that are preventing it from reaching its full potential. Unsurprisingly, in many respects, the human genome turned out to be a lot more complex than was originally thought. Yet, this can be treated simply by administering a type of vitamin B6.

After spending almost an entire day deliberating the safety of Vertex Pharmaceuticals’ and CRISPR Therapeutics’ CRISPR-based gene therapy exa-cel for sickle cell disease, a US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advisory panel appears to be satisfied with what it saw. CRISPR works as genetic scissors to edit parts of the genome.

Pharma has used this to begin creating targeted treatments, such as gene therapies , which are able to hone in on gene mutations that cause health issues and eradicate or replace the faulty gene. The information gathered from the project is still providing insights today, a decade later.

Charlie told pharmaphorum how his search for a genetic cause has led him to straddle the divide between scientist and patient advocate. Everything the 100,000 Genomes Project does has to be rubber-stamped by the patients”. For some people, a job is more than just a job.

During this period, Nobel prize-winning German scientist Paul Ehrlich developed his lock-key hypothesis of molecules that specifically bind to cell receptors. Building on the success of cytokine-based immunotherapies, scientists continued to seek other areas where the immune system could be leveraged against tumours.
