In terms of business development, CRISPR Therapeutics has made strides with its flagship CRISPR/Cas9-based therapy, CASGEVY, which has been approved in multiple countries for the treatment of severe sickle cell disease and transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia. The company is also advancing several other gene-edited cell therapy programs for oncology and autoimmune diseases, as well as in vivo editing programs for cardiovascular disease. Looking ahead, CRISPR Therapeutics plans to continue its research and development efforts, with a focus on expanding clinical trials, advancing current programs, and identifying new product candidates. The company expects to incur increased expenses as it progresses with its development activities and prepares for potential commercialization of its product candidates.
