CRISPR CLINICAL TRIALS

Medicine is changing.

New CRISPR gene editing clinical studies are rapidly emerging and we think a comprehensive overview is valuable to help keep track of them all.

CRISPR is the hot new rapidly rising gene editing tool but we also include clinical trials of other gene editing modalities like the Zinc Finger Nucleases, TALENs, MegaTALS, CAS-CLOVER, MegaNucleases and any new variants that will be out there in the future. We will keep updating our overview.

Check already now the world's-first clinical trial for a CRISPR-Cas3 phage therapy for treatment of urinary tract infections, developed by Locus BioSciences and get all the details about their unique technology from this interview with VP, Business Development, Joseph Nixon.

The clinical trials are arranged in the following areas:

Antibacterials
Blood
Cancer
Eye
Metabolic disorders
Other genetic conditions
