Ep. 137 - Intellia's Data, IRA's Orphan Impact, CFIUS Order

A year after it reported its first clinical data showing CRISPR-based gene editing may live up to its promise, Intellia has provided evidence for the second time that its platform can knock down a clinically relevant target in the liver, and revealed the first data showing it can deliver clinical benefit. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury's editors discuss the hereditary angioedema data for NTLA-2002.
