Posted: November 3, 2019 at 5:46 pm
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 31, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intellia Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTLA), reported operational highlights and financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019.
In 2019, we continued to leverage the breadth of our genome editing platform to advance our in vivo and engineered cell therapy programs. We have demonstrated that we can knock out a disease-causing gene as well as introduce a functional gene to restore normal protein production. Now, we have achieved consecutive editing in vivo by combining both these edit types, further highlighting the versatility of our modular platform, said Intellia President and Chief Executive Officer, John Leonard, M.D. Our full-spectrum strategy and platform capabilities are enabling Intellias development of a robust pipeline to address a range of severe diseases. We look forward to the planned nomination of our first engineered cell therapy development candidate for acute myeloid leukemia by year-end and the submission of our first IND application for NTLA-2001 for the treatment of transthyretin amyloidosis in mid-2020.
