Caribou Biosciences develops novel allogeneic CAR-T and CAR-NK cell therapies. It uses CRISPR-Cas9 and CRISPR-Cas12a to knock out multiple genes, such as TRAC (endogenous T cell receptor) in healthy donor-derived T cells, and PD-1 and B2M to armor the cells. The company is testing its CB010 programme, directed towards CD19, in early clinical trials. Caribou is also developing multiple pre-clinical assets. The company is co-founded by Nobel prize winner, Jennifer Doudna.
