September 12 2024 - 7:30AM
Intellia Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTLA), a leading clinical-stage
gene editing company focused on revolutionizing medicine with
CRISPR-based therapies, today announced that data from the Phase 2
study of NTLA-2002 will be presented at the 2024 American College
of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific
Meeting, taking place October 24 – 28 in Boston, Massachusetts.
NTLA-2002 is an investigational in vivo CRISPR-based gene editing
therapy in development as a single-dose treatment for hereditary
angioedema (HAE), a rare genetic condition that leads to
potentially life-threatening swelling attacks.

About NTLA-2002Based on Nobel-prize winning
CRISPR/Cas9 technology, NTLA-2002 has the potential to become the
first one-time treatment for hereditary angioedema (HAE). NTLA-2002
is designed to prevent HAE attacks by inactivating the kallikrein
B1 (KLKB1) gene, which encodes for prekallikrein, the kallikrein
precursor protein. Interim Phase 1 clinical data showed dramatic
reductions in attack rate, as well as consistent, deep and durable
reductions in kallikrein levels. NTLA-2002 has received five
notable regulatory designations, including Orphan Drug and RMAT
Designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the
Innovation Passport by the U.K. Medicines and Healthcare products
Regulatory Agency (MHRA), Priority Medicines (PRIME) Designation by
the European Medicines Agency, as well as Orphan Drug Designation
by the European Commission.
About Hereditary Angioedema Hereditary
angioedema (HAE) is a rare, genetic disease characterized by
severe, recurring and unpredictable inflammatory attacks in various
organs and tissues of the body, which can be painful, debilitating
and life-threatening. It is estimated that one in 50,000 people are
affected by HAE. Although there is no known cure for HAE, there are
preventative and on-demand treatment options to help manage the
condition, including long- and short-term prophylaxis used to
prevent swelling attacks. Current treatment options often include
life-long therapies, which may require chronic intravenous (IV) or
subcutaneous (SC) administration as often as twice per week or
daily oral administration to ensure constant pathway suppression
for disease control. Despite chronic administration, breakthrough
attacks still occur. Kallikrein inhibition is a clinically
validated strategy for the preventive treatment of HAE attacks.
