Montreal Doctors Cure Teen's Immune Disease With Gene Editing
An 18-year-old patient with a once-incurable immune disease now shows no symptoms after Montreal doctors used groundbreaking "prime editing" gene therapy. A year after treatment, he's living a normal life with three-quarters of his diseased cells permanently corrected.
Gene Editing Extends Prion Disease Survival 60% in Mice
Scientists from Harvard, MIT, and Case Western used CRISPR gene editing to extend the lives of mice with deadly prion diseases by 60%. While the treatment isn't ready for humans yet, it marks a breakthrough against diseases that currently have no cure.
CRISPR Gene Editing Now Saves Lives After 10-Year Journey
A bacterial defense system discovered in 2012 has transformed into life-saving treatments for cancer and rare diseases. Scientists refined CRISPR gene editing from crude molecular scissors into precision medicine that's curing patients today.
St. Jude Gets $28.5M for Gene-Editing Treatment for Kids
Researchers at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital just received $28.5 million to develop a breakthrough gene-editing treatment that could replace invasive bone marrow transplants for children with rare inherited diseases. Instead of weeks in isolation and chemotherapy, kids might one day receive a simple IV infusion that corrects the genetic mutation causing their disease.
Gene-Editing Shot Cuts "Bad" Cholesterol 62% in Trial
A one-time gene-editing treatment slashed bad cholesterol by 62% in early human trials, offering hope for millions who struggle with heart disease prevention. Eli Lilly's breakthrough therapy showed no serious side effects in the study.
