Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and Northwestern University identified a previously unknown treatment opportunity for sickle cell disease and β-thalassemia. The discovery, ...
A new study has brought scientists one step further in the direction of developing a cure for a brutal group of rare brain disorders known as SYNGAP1-related disorders, or SRDs. Researchers were able ...
"This was the first proof that 'gene therapy in a box' could work." Gene therapies or cell therapies that involve genetically modified cells today are available at only a limited number of research ...
Biogen has discontinued all gene therapy programs using adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsids, instead shifting resources to modalities that have the highest likelihood of achieving better treatment ...
