Title: Development of Best-in-Class Gene Editing Therapy for β-Hemoglobinopathies Using Innovative Transformer Base Editor (tBE)

Location: County Hall, London, United Kingdom

 

CS-101 is an ex vivo gene editing hematopoietic stem cell therapy which uses tBE to reactivate γ-globin of hematopoietic stem cells for the treatment of β-hemoglobinopathies including β-thalassemia and sickle cell disease. Compared with Cas nuclease gene editing therapy and regular base editing therapy, tBE exhibits higher γ-globin induction, lower cytotoxicity, and undetected off-target mutations.

“We are very glad to be invited to participate in ASCAT Conference. This is our first presentation to the worldwide to introduce our base editing technologies. Thanks to the organizer of ASCAT Conference for the recognition and this opportunity.” Dr. Susan Mou, CEO of Correctseq said, “The advantages of tBE will help us to develop a potential best-in-class gene editing therapy for β-hemoglobinopathies. We have successfully scaled up the cell manufacturing process from laboratory to clinical and even commercial levels. The tBE-edited hematopoietic stem cells exhibited long-term safety and efficacy in mice for more than 6 months. In addition, CS-101 IND package is compliance with ICH, China, US, and EU regulatory guidelines. We are looking for collaboration opportunities with global partners to expand the scope of CS-101 clinical study, hopefully to benefit more patients worldwide.”
