  12. Slide 12: Gene Editing - Principles

    Gene Editing - Principles • Guide design matters - Highly selective guides can be identified • Cell type matters – Editing efficiency varies across different cell lines/cell types • Cannot predict relative ability to delete intervening DNA between to guide sites from individual guide NHEJ disruption

  13. Slide 13: Delivery - Key Challenge For In Vivo Applications

    Delivery - Key Challenge For In Vivo Applications Ex vivo In vivo HSCs Liver • Monogenic diseases • Metabolic diseases • Enzyme replacement • Enzyme replacement • Other indications e.g. HIV Delivery Eye Oncology cell Required • Monogenic diseases therapies • Complex indications • CAR-Ts, TCR Other o

  14. Slide 14: Making a CRISPR Medicine: Some of the Challenges

    Making a “CRISPR” Medicine: Some of the Challenges • Pharmacodynamics • Regulatory framework and Product Development: Selecting the Dose as an example • Safety – off-target effects • Manufacturing and controls 14

  15. Slide 15: Pharmacodynamics (Proof-of-Principle)

    Pharmacodynamics (Proof-of-Principle) • Animal Models – Do they need to be “Humanized” ? • Assess Pharmacology: • “Amount” of gene edit • Functional tests (restoration of function) • Marker of biological activity • Impact on ‘clinical’ endpoint • Comparability to product candidate 15

  16. Slide 16: Regulatory Framework and Product Development: Selecting the Dose

    Regulatory Framework and Product Development: Selecting the Dose as an Example 13 April 2012 EMA/CAT/GTWP/671639/2008 Committee for Advanced Therapies (CAT) Considerations for the Design of 1 23 March 2015 2 Early-Phase Clinical Trials of 1 3 Guideline on quality, EMA/CAT/80183/2014 Committee for Ad

    Manufacturing Process and Quality Ex-vivo CD34+ HSC as an Example 17

  18. Slide 18: Creating CRISPR-Based Therapeutics

    Creating CRISPR-Based Therapeutics • CRISPR-based gene editing is efficient and can be highly specific • Optimizing guides is largely empiric and system dependent • Creating a new medicine requires good drug development • CRISPR Therapeutics research operations established in Cambridge MA – expandin
