Neurogene Inc. is dedicated to engineering transformative genetic treatments for individuals and their families grappling with debilitating neurological conditions. Its current pipeline prominently features two key investigational therapies: NGN-401, an AAV9 gene therapy specifically targeting Rett syndrome, and NGN-101, which is being developed to address neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis subtype 5 (Batten disease). The company's operations are based in New York, New York.
Atsena Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage gene therapy company headquartered in Durham, North Carolina, established in 2019. The firm focuses on developing novel gene therapies to treat debilitating inherited blinding diseases using proprietary vector delivery technologies. Its scientific pipeline aims to address areas of high unmet medical need in ophthalmology.
Gemma Labs Inc. (GEMMABio) is a biotechnology company that develops gene therapies for rare diseases using next-generation AAV technology. The company focuses on programs targeting motor neuron disorders, skeletal conditions, and cardiomyopathies to serve the rare disease community.
Passage Bio, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to pioneering genetic therapies for conditions affecting the central nervous system. Their advanced pipeline includes PBGM01, designed to treat infantile GM1 gangliosidosis by utilizing a proprietary AAVhu68 capsid to deliver a functional GLB1 gene, which codes for the lysosomal acid beta-galactosidase enzyme, to both the brain and peripheral tissues. Another key program, PBFT02, employs an AAV1 capsid to introduce a functional granulin (GRN) gene, encoding progranulin (PGRN), to the brain as a treatment for FTD-GRN. Additionally, PBKR03 is under development for infantile Krabbe disease, leveraging a proprietary AAVhu68 capsid to deliver a functional GALC gene, responsible for producing the hydrolytic enzyme galactosylceramidase, to the brain and surrounding tissues. The company's portfolio also features PBML04 for metachromatic leukodystrophy, PBAL05 for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and PBCM06 for Charcot-Marie-Tooth Type 2A. Passage Bio maintains a significant research collaboration with the Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania's Gene Therapy Program, alongside a development services and clinical supply agreement with Catalent Maryland, Inc. Established in 2017, the company's headquarters are located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
CRISPR Therapeutics AG (CRSP) is a biotechnology firm dedicated to pioneering gene-based medicines for severe diseases. The company achieves this through its exclusive Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) technology, which enables precise and targeted alterations to an organism's genetic code. Its extensive pipeline includes therapeutic candidates spanning multiple medical areas, such as blood disorders (hemoglobinopathies), various cancers (oncology), regenerative medicine, and rare conditions. The company's flagship investigational therapy is CTX001, an ex vivo CRISPR gene-edited treatment. This therapy aims to benefit patients with transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia or severe sickle cell disease by modifying their own hematopoietic stem cells to markedly boost the production of fetal hemoglobin within red blood cells. CRISPR Therapeutics is also advancing several other genetically engineered allogeneic (donor-sourced) CAR-T investigational therapies: CTX110, designed to combat cluster of differentiation 19-positive malignancies; CTX120, which targets B-cell maturation antigen for multiple myeloma that has relapsed or proven resistant to previous treatments; and CTX130, focused on Cluster of Differentiation 70 for a spectrum of solid tumors and blood cancers. Furthermore, the company is developing VCTX210, an immune-evasive, gene-edited stem cell-derived product candidate for treating type 1 diabetes. It is also pursuing various in vivo gene-editing initiatives aimed at addressing disorders affecting the liver, lungs, muscles, and central nervous system. The company has forged strategic alliances with significant partners, including Bayer Healthcare LLC, Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated, ViaCyte, Inc., Nkarta, Inc., and Capsida Biotherapeutics. CRISPR Therapeutics AG was established in 2013 and maintains its headquarters in Zug, Switzerland.
Coave Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company headquartered in Paris, France. The company focuses on developing life-changing gene therapies targeting rare ocular and central nervous system diseases.
