Monte Rosa Therapeutics Inc. followed up December’s positive prostate cancer data with strong interim findings from a phase I study with MRT-8102, a NEK7-directed molecular glue degrader in the works for inflammatory conditions driven by the NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-1, and IL-6.
A preclinical study presented at the 32nd Annual Congress of the European Society of Gene and Cell Therapy (ESGCT), held in Seville Oct. 7-10, showed a new epigenetic editing technology that enables durable gene silencing using ELXRs, short for Epigenetic Long-Term X-Repressors. With this approach, scientists at Scribe Therapeutics Inc. successfully inhibited the expression of the PCSK9 gene, a key regulator of cholesterol metabolism, in human cells, mice and nonhuman primates.
Replicate Bioscience Inc. and Novo Nordisk A/S have entered into a multiyear research collaboration that will leverage Replicate’s novel self-replicating RNA (srRNA) platform to develop new therapeutic candidates to treat obesity, type 2 diabetes and other cardiometabolic diseases.
