Flagship-founded companies joined other leaders in #cellandgenetherapy at the @ASGCTherapy's Annual Meeting, sharing strides in the development of their respective bioplatform technologies and progress toward potentially transformative medicines. Read the full summary and highlights below: bit.ly/3WIUvtp
🔷 @ring_tx shared data in nonhuman primates showing the ability to redose genetic medicines using their vectors based on a little-known class of viruses called anelloviruses.
🔷 @TesseraTx displayed curative results in humanized mouse models using its Gene Writers and proprietary lipid nanoparticles to restore normal hemoglobin production in hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow without chemotherapy or mobilization for the treatment of #sicklecelldisease.
🔷 @alltrna demonstrated robust ability to readthrough premature stop codons in mouse models, promising preclinical results that suggest their engineered tRNAs could offer a versatile approach to rescue protein production in rare and ulta-rare diseases caused by nonsense mutations, known as stop codon disease.
🔷 @OmegaTX showed preclinical data highlighting their ability to program epigenetic controllers to upregulate gene expression for a variety of genes types and cell conditions, providing effects that last weeks to months after a single dose.
🔷 Sana Biotechnology displayed data showing a promising safety profile for their in vivo CAR T therapy, suggesting its potential to offer comparable efficacy and genomic safety as established treatments.

Today, @OmegaTX publicly ID'd its lead drug candidate for hepatocellular carcinoma and is prepping for IND.
CEO Mahesh Karande previously told me the expectation is patients with chronic conditions could receive the treatment as few as three times per year.

Lucid and simple explanation of how mRNA-based vaccines work. Nicely done @NoubarAfeyan. The world is ready for mRNA vaccines and therapeutics. Thanks to you and @moderna_tx for paving the way! @FlagshipPioneer @moderna_tx @OmegaTX
Entrepreneurship and innovation have enriched the US greatly in large part due to the flow of highly skilled immigrants. Among the many examples is @Moderna_tx, the pioneer of mRNA technology and its effective Covid-19 vaccine. 1/3
