The firm is focused on developing transformative gene editing medicines to treat a range of serious diseases. The company has developed a gene editing platform based on clustered, regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) technology. CRISPR uses a protein-ribonucleic acid (RNA) complex composed of an enzyme, including either CRISPR associated protein 9 (Cas9) or CRISPR from Prevotella and Francisella 1 (Cas12a), bound to a guide RNA molecule designed to recognize a particular deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequence. The company is engaged in the development of in vivo administered gene editing medicines, in which the medicine is injected or infused into the patient to edit the cells inside their body. Its lead program, EDIT-301, is an experimental ex vivo gene-edited medicine to treat sickle cell disease (SCD), a severe inherited blood disease that causes premature death, and transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia (TDT).
