Precision Biosciences utilises its proprietary ARCUS genome-editing plaform to develop novel CAR-T and gene-editing therapies. The platform is based on the homing endonuclease I-CreI that allows for single, highly specific DNA edits. The company has advanced multiple CAR-T programmes to clinical trials, mainly for the treatment of haematological cancers. Furthermore, the company has a broad in vivo gene correction pipeline under development for the treatment of genetic diseases.
