EffRx Pharmaceuticals Signs Exclusive License Agreement with Diurnal for the Registration and Commercialization of Alkindi and Submits Market…

Oct. 21, 2020 11:00 UTC

FREIENBACH, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- EffRxSA, a commercial-stage company that commercializes niche and orphan medicines in Switzerland and Europe, today announced it has recently entered into an exclusive license agreement with Diurnal Group plc, a specialty pharmaceutical company targeting patient needs in chronic endocrine diseases, for the registration and commercialization of Alkindi for pediatric adrenocortical insufficiency (AI) in Switzerland. Under the terms of the agreement EffRx has received the exclusive rights to register and commercialize Alkindi in Switzerland.

Alkindi is the first preparation of hydrocortisone specifically designed for use in children suffering from paediatric adrenocortical insufficiency (AI). Alkindi is a patented, oral, immediate-release paediatric formulation of hydrocortisone granules in capsules for opening that allows for accurate age-appropriate dosing in children. This therapeutic approach has the potential to help young patients less than eighteen years of age suffering from pediatric AI and the related condition congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).

Alkindi is already approved and marketed in the European Union and is the first preparation of hydrocortisone specifically designed for use in children suffering from AI. On September 29th, 2020 the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has also approved Alkindi for AI.

EffRx has recently submitted to Swissmedic (Switzerland) a Market Authorization Application for the registration of Alkindi. Pending successful regulatory registration, this new treatment approach is expected to be available on the Swiss market by 2022. In Switzerland there are approximately 200 patients suffering from pediatric AI.

We are extremely pleased to announce this partnership with Diurnal which demonstrates EffRx capability to expand its portfolio with promising niche and orphan medicines, commented Lorenzo Bosisio, CEO of EffRx Pharmaceuticals. We look forward to bringing this novel therapeutic approach to Switzerland. We are confident that Alkindi provides a tangible advancement for young patients suffering from AI and their carers.

Martin Whitaker, CEO of Diurnal, commented: This partnership with EffRx further validates the quality of our products and broadens the future availability of Alkindi. EffRx is well-placed to register and market our product Alkindi in Switzerland. We have made strong progress with the sales of Alkindi across Europe since its approval and subsequent launch in 2018, and we are confident this agreement will enable further growth.

Pediatric AI, including the genetic condition CAH is a condition characterised by deficiency in cortisol, an essential hormone in regulating metabolism and the response to stress. The primary symptoms of AI are chronic fatigue and patients are at risk of adrenal crisis and death if they do not have adequate cortisol replacement. AI is either primary or secondary, with primary AI resulting from diseases intrinsic to the adrenal gland and secondary AI resulting from pituitary diseases where there is a failure of stimulation of the adrenal by the pituitary of the signalling hormone ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone).

Skepticism led woman to send dog DNA to Orig3n. Scientists question the reliability of direct-to-consumer genetic testing and analysis. -…

First, Katie Stoll sent the company a swab from her mixed-breed dog; later, a sample of tap water from her kitchen sink. Neither sample was identified as non-human by Orig3n lab employees.

Genetic counselor Katie Stoll was skeptical when she bought an at-home genetics test kit from a company called Orig3n in December 2017.

The kit was advertised to parents looking to better understand their childrens genetic profiles.

From food allergies to natural abilities for language and learning, the results help you get to know your child even better, Orig3n said of its Childhood Development genetic test kit.

Stoll purchased the test kit not to learn more about her child, but to learn more about Orig3n, a Boston-based consumer genetics company that pivoted to COVID-19 testing last spring and is now facing sanctions from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services after the lab produced at least 383 false positive coronavirus test results last summer.

Stoll, working on her own, eventually submitted two samples to Orig3n for analysis. First, she sent the company a swab from her mixed-breed dog, Ginger; then later, a sample of tap water from her kitchen sink. Neither sample was identified as non-human by Orig3n lab employees.

Stoll is a board-certified genetic counselor who now works as executive director for the Genetic Support Foundation, an Olympia, Washington-based nonprofit that aims to provide independent information about genetics.

In a 2018 complaint she wrote to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health spurred by Orig3ns failure to identify the dog and tap water samples as non-human Stoll said that in ordering the kits, she as a consumer wanted to see if the company was forthright about the potential risks and limitations of the kind of genetic testing it offered. She also wanted to know if the company required a consent form, since the test was for children.

Orig3n CEO Robin Smith said last week that while the type of DNA analysis his company offers is relatively new, it provides one tool among many to help people make decisions about their lives.

The philosophy and culture here is, let's optimistically look at how you make yourself better, which is what everybody's interested in, he said. It's just another tool in that approach.

Scientists skeptical

But direct-to-consumer genetic testing continues to be viewed with skepticism in the scientific community.

Sarah Nelson is a senior research scientist at the University of Washington specializing in the ethical and social implications of genomics the study of all of an individuals genes and direct-to-consumer genetic testing. The university'sMolecular Biology and Genetics programs were ranked sixth in the world by U.S. News & World Report.

Theres a wide range in the quality and validity of direct-to-consumer genetic testing companies and the products they offer, Nelson said, but overall, the genetics community has reservations about genetic tests billed as being able to advise people about their predisposition to certain traits.

There's skepticism that we even understand the genetic basis of diseases and traits well enough to be reporting back to individuals, just the scientific credibility, she said. Maybe in 20 years we'll know enough to give people that type of information, but right now, it's premature.

Lindsay Farrer, a medical geneticist and Boston Universitys chief of biomedical genetics, said direct-to-consumer genetic testing often misleads customers because the companies use population-level data from studies about genetic links to certain traits or diseases and wrongly applies that data into risk assessments for random individuals.

Usually, the studies used by companies like Orig3n are based on very specific populations, such as older white European women, that dont always represent the range of people ordering the tests.

The information they give, even if it's of limited applicability, the accuracy of it is, at best, modest, he said. I guess my conclusion would be buyer beware.

Orig3n fails to flag samples as non-human

Stoll watched Orig3n advertise at sporting events including NFL and NHL games with concern, but it was the companys online advertisements for its Childhood Development test kits that prompted her to place an order herself.

Stoll thinks consumer genetic test kits like the ones offered by Orig3n also push important ethical boundaries, especially when it comes to children. Children cant consent to learning information about their DNA that has the potential to shape the rest of their lives, she said, even if their parents can.

Stoll said she didnt trust Orig3n with her childs DNA or her own, so instead, she swabbed the cheek of her dog, Ginger. After sending the kit containing Gingers DNA to Orig3n, she got a full report back from the company on Jan. 18, 2018 about the dogs genetic profile, which showed, among other things, that she was likely to have mild struggles with reading.

She said she gave the company a second chance. She ordered another Childhood Development kit, and sent in a sample of tap water from her kitchen sink on March 17, 2018. Again, she got a full report back from Orig3n. According to the report, the tap water would need longer to develop skills required for language learning.

Farrer laughed out loud when he learned that Orig3n had returned profiles for Stolls dog and the sample of tap water from her kitchen sink.

I can't think of a word to describe it, but it is beyond incompetence, he said. If that's the case, they are not competent to do what they're doing. If theyre getting DNA out of tap water, then thats bacterial DNA and that is clearly different from human DNA.

If they cant generate results reliably, then its worse than snake oil, Farrer said. Its downright chicanery.

A lab in transition

The companys report on Stolls sample of tap water was signed by Orig3ns then-lab director, a board certified geneticist, which deeply disturbed Stoll.

She reached out to the lab director, who told Stoll that she had resigned from the company, and that when the tap water sample was submitted, Orig3n was transitioning to a new director.

The lab director was not on-site at the laboratory when the test was performed and she had very limited visibility into the testing operations at that time, Stoll wrote in her complaint letter.

Stoll told the DPH that she was concerned about Orig3ns ethics, its technical proficiency and its professional oversight.

I hope that (the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) will investigate these concerns and act as necessary in the interest of public safety, Stoll wrote in the complaint, dated Sept. 24, 2018.

In an emailed response to a similar complaint Stoll sent to the federal Food & Drug Administration, Tim Stenzel, writing on behalf of FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, said the agency takes reports like hers seriously.

...We will evaluate this matter to determine what follow-up action is appropriate, Stenzel wrote. The type and extent of any follow-up is dependent upon the nature of the problem, the possible impact on the public health, and the availability of our resources.

A DPH investigation into Orig3n conducted before Stoll filed her complaint found the lab had fixed lab issues that led to the companys failure to identify dog DNA as non-human.

In April 2020, despite three previous investigations by other agencies into quality control problems in Orig3ns lab, the FDA gave the company emergency authorization to conduct coronavirus testing.

In May, the DPH recommended Orig3n as a testing option for nursing homes facing deadly outbreaks.

For Stoll, the eventual finding by regulators that problems at Orig3ns lab led to the reporting of hundreds of false positive COVID-19 tests showed a dangerous weakness in how governmental agencies are overseeing labs that test human samples, whether those tests are used for diagnostic purposes or personal betterment. False diagnostic test results can pose a danger to patients because doctors make medical decisions based on those results.

That weakness needs to be addressed so Americans can trust the results of their lab tests, especially amid a deadly pandemic, she said.

I feel discouraged, Stoll said last week. What does the system mean when you do things the right way and you file complaints to the right agencies and nothing happens, and then something horrible like this happens? It just feels terrible, really.

Hereditary Testing Services Market: Advancements in hereditary testing techniques are expected to boost the market – BioSpace

Hereditary Testing Services Market: Introduction

Hereditary testing is usually referred to as genetic testing or DNA testing. Hereditary testing is employed to spot alterations in the DNA sequence that correlate with a disease or higher risk to develop a disease. This kind of test is often used for diagnosis before any symptoms of the disease are recognizable in order to work out the personal risk for certain multifactorial diseases. Thus, the results of hereditary testing can have far-reaching effects on a person's life.

Hereditary testing can provide important information for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of illness; however, there are limitations. For instance, a positive result from DNA testing in a healthy individual doesn't generally mean that he would develop a disease, while in some situations, a negative result doesn't guarantee that the individual won't have a particular disorder.

Scientists use gene therapy and a novel light-sensing protein to restore vision in mice – National Institutes of Health

News Release

Thursday, October 22, 2020

NIH-funded therapy will now be tested in humans.

A newly developed light-sensing protein called the MCO1 opsin restores vision in blind mice when attached to retina bipolar cells using gene therapy. The National Eye Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health, provided a Small Business Innovation Research grant to Nanoscope, LLC for development of MCO1. The company is planning a U.S. clinical trial for later this year.

Nanoscopes findings, reported today in Nature Gene Therapy, show that totally blind micemeaning they have no light perceptionregain significant retinal function and vision after treatment. Studies described in the report showed that treated mice were significantly faster in standardized visual tests, such as navigating mazes and detecting changes in motion.

Opsins are proteins that signal other cells as part of a cascade of signals essential to visual perception. In a normal eye, opsins are expressed by the rod and cone photoreceptors in the retina. When activated by light, the photoreceptors pulse and send a signal through other retinal neurons, the optic nerve, and on to neurons in the brain.

A variety of common eye diseases, including age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa, damage the photoreceptors, impairing vision. But while the photoreceptors may no longer fully function, other retinal neurons, including a class of cells called bipolar cells, remain intact. The investigators identified a way for bipolar cells to take on some of the work of damaged photoreceptors.

The beauty of our strategy is its simplicity, said Samarendra Mohanty, Ph.D., Nanoscope founder and corresponding author of a report on the mouse study that appears today in Nature Gene Therapy. Bipolar cells are downstream from the photoreceptors, so when the MCO1 opsin gene is added to bipolar cells in a retina with nonfunctioning photoreceptors, light sensitivity is restored.

The strategy could overcome challenges plagued by other approaches to retinal regeneration, according to the researchers. Gene replacement therapy has thus far worked principally in rare diseases that leave photoreceptors intact, such as Luxurna for Leber congenital amaurosis. Bionic eyes, such as the Argus II retinal prosthesis, require invasive surgery and wearable hardware. Other opsin replacement therapies require the intensification of light in order to reach the threshold required for signal transduction. Intense light risks further damage to the retina. Nanoscopes therapy requires a one-time injection into the eye and no hardware. MCO1 is sensitive to ambient light, so no need exists for strong light to be shined into the eye. And therapy with MCO1 could treat a wider range of degenerative retinal diseases, since photoreceptor survival not required.

The researchers found no concerning safety issues in treated mice. Examination of blood and tissues found no signs of inflammation due to treatment and the therapy had no off-target effect only bipolar cells expressed the MCO1 opsin.

Under a best-case scenario, the therapy could help patients achieve 20/60 vision, according to the researchers; however, no one knows how the restored vision will compare to normal vision.

A clinical study in people will help us understand how signaling through bipolar cells affects vision quality; for example, how well treated eyes can pick out fast-moving objects., said Subrata Batabyal, Ph.D., lead author of the manuscript. The therapy will likely be limited for treatment of patients with severe retinal disease.

If this optogenetic approach using cells spared in degenerated retina can prove to be effective in vision restoration in humans, beyond light perception, it could offer a valuable alternative to the retinal prosthesis approach for people with late-stage retinitis pigmentosa, said PaekGyu Lee, Ph.D., NEIs program officer for the Small Business Innovation Research program.

This press release describes a basic research finding. Basic research increases our understanding of human behavior and biology, which is foundational to advancing new and better ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat disease. Science is an unpredictable and incremental process each research advance builds on past discoveries, often in unexpected ways.

Gene therapy and light-sensing protein used to restore sight in mice – BioPharma-Reporter.com

Research published in Nature Gene Therapy today shows how the light-sensing protein (MCO1 opsin) can restore vision in blind mice when attached to retina bipolar cells using gene therapy.

Nanoscope LLC received a Small Business Innovation Research grant from the US National Eye Institute (part of the National Institutes of Health) to develop MC01.

The research opens up the field for gene therapy for a number of degenerative retinal diseases where photoreceptors are damaged.

Opsins are proteins that signal other cells as part of a series of signals needed for sight. In a normal eye, opsins are expressed by the rod and cone photoreceptors in the retina.

A number of common eye diseases - including age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa - damage the photoreceptors.

But while the photoreceptors may no longer fully function, other retinal neurons, including bipolar cells, remain intact. The researchers have found a way for bipolar cells to take on some of the work of damaged photoreceptors.

Biopolar cells are downstream from photoreceptors, so when the MC01 opsin gene is added to these biopolar cells, light sensitivity can be restored.

The researchers used AAV2 assisted delivery of highly photosensitive multi-characteristic opsin (MC01) onto ON-bipolar cells of mice with retinal degradation to allow activiation by ambient light.

Researchers explored the delivery efficacy by using different doses of AAV2 carrying MCO1 (vMCO1) into targeted cells and analysed the results over the 6 months after delivery. They found that treated mice were able to perform significantly faster in standardized visual tests, such as navigating mazes and detecting changes in motion.

To date, gene replacement therapy has worked mainly in diseases that leave photoreceptors intact (such as Luxturna for Leber congenital amaurosis).

The new research means that therapy with MC01 could be investigated for a wider range of degenerative retinal diseases, without requiring photoreceptors to survive.

It could also offer a better option that other solutions: bionic eyes require invasive surgery and wearable hardware; while other opsin replacement therapies require intense light to be strong enough to create a signal (with intense light risking further retina damage).

Researchers suggest that, in a best-case scenario, the therapy could help patients achieve 20/60 vision. It is likely to be limited to patients with severe retinal disease: and further research will explore how bipolar cells can be used.

Subrata Batabyal, Ph.D., lead author of the study, said: "A clinical study in people will help us understand how signaling through bipolar cells affects vision quality; for example, how well treated eyes can pick out fast-moving objects."

SparingVision raises 44.5M to develop mutation-agnostic gene therapy – FierceBiotech

SparingVision has raised 44.5 million ($52.5 million) to develop its mutation-agnostic gene therapy treatment for retinitis pigmentosa (RP). The financing positions SparingVision to fund clinical trials of an AAV gene therapy that could stop vision deterioration in the 2 million RP patients.

Gene therapies including Spark TherapeuticsLuxturna are designed to address genetic drivers that cause some patients to develop RP and suffer vision loss. However, with at least 65 distinct RP-causing mutations of three different types, the numbers of patients that can be helped with any one gene-replacement therapy are relatively small. SparingVision, in contrast, is going after the whole RP market.

Its gene therapy but its mutation agnostic. The market potential is very large, unlike most gene therapies being developed, which address very specific mutations [in the eye]. The commercial viability of those mutation-specific gene therapies is kind of questionable, Stphane Boissel, who recently took over as CEO of SparingVision, said.

Digitize remote site monitoring with Box

Box will discuss how your life sciences organization can continue to propel therapies & devices through the value chain with faster and even more secure site monitoring and auditing.

The mutation-agnostic approach is built on an understanding of RP. The deterioration of the vision of RP patients begins with the degeneration of rod photoreceptors. That causes night blindness. Over time, cone photoreceptors start to degenerate, causing vision to deteriorate to the point that a patient is legally blind, despite most known genetic mutations only affecting the rods.

SparingVisions scientific founders identified an explanation for the loss of cones. As the number of rods falls, cones receive lower levels of the neurotrophic factors released by the photoreceptors. The loss of rods leads to lower levels of the neurotrophic factors, which in turn causes the loss of cones.

The research led to a novel gene therapy approach. Unlike treatments such as Luxturna, the gene therapy does not seek to replace a faulty or missing gene. Rather, the therapy is designed to ensure cones have access to the molecules that support their preservation. The gene therapy encodes for neutrophil factor RdCVF and an enzyme, potentially enabling it to restore aerobic glycolysis in cones and protect them from oxidative stress.

The idea is not to restore vision. The idea is to slow or stop the progression of the disease by preventing the cones from further degenerating, Boissel said.

SparingVision has raised 44.5 million to pursue that idea, bringing its total series A financing haul up to around 60 million. With GMP manufacturing almost done and IND-enabling studies underway, the money will enable SparingVision to move into a clinical trial to assess the safety of its candidate next year. Once SparingVision has safety data, it will run an efficacy trial using the series A funds.

The potential to take a mutation-agnostic RP gene therapy to clinical proof of concept has attracted a diverse group of investors. Advanced therapy VC 4BIO Capital led the round with UPMC Enterprises, the venture arm of healthcare provider and insurer UPMC. Jeito Capital, Ysios Capital, Bpifrance and Foundation Fighting Blindnessa charity that funded research into RdCVFalso participated.

The syndicate that we put together is not the typical VC syndicate. This is a well-balanced group of typical VCs but also very long-term, patient-centric investors. We have no pressure to, for example, exit. The only pressure we have is to deliver a drug to the patients, Boissel said.

Boissel has taken upthat challenge after two years at Sangamo Therapeutics, which bought the last company he led, TxCell, for 72 million. The CEO is now building out the rest of the team, with a chief technical officer set to join soon and a chief medical officer slated to arrive in the new year. The team will work to advance the lead candidate into the clinic and expand into the U.S.

Pfizer: Expanding North Carolina Gene Therapy Facility and Adding Jobs – BioSpace

In anticipation of our Pfizer Gene Therapy Career Event scheduled for Wednesday, October 28, 2020, BioSpace spoke with Alison Ricci, Pfizers Senior Business HR Partner- Global Sciences, Business HR for Bioprocess Research and Development, and HR Site Lead for the companys four locations in Chapel Hill and Morrisville, North Carolina, Chesterfield, Missouri and Lake Forest, Illinois.

In late August, Pfizer announced it was investing an additional $500 million into its state-of-the-art gene therapy manufacturing facility in Sanford, North Carolina. This is in addition to the companys continuing investment into gene therapy research and development and other areas going on throughout the company, but specifically in its North Carolina sites in Chapel Hill and Kit Creek. The companys presence in North Carolina currently exceeds 3,600 people, with 650 in Sanford. The expanded facility is expected to add over 100 new jobs.

Ricci told BioSpace the company has been investing heavily in gene therapy and in the Raleigh-Durham Research Triangle Park area. They have three facilities in and around the area that focus specifically on gene therapy, including a research facility in Morrisville, its existing clinical manufacturing site in Chapel Hill, and a very large manufacturing site in Sanford.

And in recognition of the continued investment and commitment to gene therapy, the company acquired a 60,000-square-feet building and 16 acres in Durham, which they are renovating into a clinical manufacturing site, essentially doubling our clinical manufacturing capacity.

*Rendering of Durham location

As such, the company has numerous positions in the area currently open with many more expected as the new site comes online.

Right now, we have 30 positions that were going to be advertising for that directly support gene therapy in those three different campuses, Ricci said.

The roles they will be looking to fill include what Ricci calls a multitude of individual contributor, team lead and management roles."

"For instance, weve got our R&D and analytical scientist roles; we have manufacturing engineering roles; we have technical specialist roles; and different types of manufacturing support and technology transfer roles, Ricci said.

They also have training specialist positions because there are a variety of supporting functions that go into the magic of making gene therapy work.

Ricci seemed excited about gene therapy and the part it is playing increasingly in Pfizers core mission. Speaking of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), increasingly a target of gene therapies, she noted how exciting and important it is to be able to provide a therapy that extends quality of life, that doesnt just treat symptoms, but that potentially marks a minimization of those symptoms and the elongation of life. Thats one of the central core components of who Pfizer is. Our patients are our North Star.

She also emphasized not only the science and motivation of Pfizer as an employer, but its culture.

People typically equate large organizations with a level of bureaucracy, that results in less risk and less innovation opportunities, Ricci said. In my five years with Pfizer Ive seen the culture shift to focus on innovation, inclusion, quality and smart resourcing figuring out how to free up resources so we can focus on bold moves and exciting new therapies allowing our scientists to stretch and grow, and make a difference for the patients that count on us.

The company has also structured rewards and recognition around those types of approaches, not only for people theyre bringing into the organization, but with its current staff.

Were still maintaining our focus on a combination of productivity and doing it right the first time while encouraging innovation, taking bold moves and trying new things," Ricci said. "Because thats the best way that good science is done, and patients win in the process.

She also notes that the Pfizer Gene Therapy Career Event is a great opportunity to have direct contact not only with Pfizer hiring managers, but with colleagues who are working in those same roles theyre hiring for.

Its a unique experience in terms of really understanding who Pfizer is and what we have to offer, Ricci said.

And, of course, the company is hiring throughout its worldwide operations in support of not only its COVID-19 clinical research trials and manufacturing processes, but in the numerous other areas the company focuses on.

The expansion in Sanford, North Carolina is only a part of the companys focus on building out capacity. It has committed about $5 billion in U.S.-based capital projects over the next several years.

But the North Carolina area is expanding end-to-end capabilities in gene therapy. The Kit Creek facility focuses on small scale production, from 2L flasks up to 250L bioreactors to develop the early processes that will later be used in larger scale manufacturing. The Chapel Hill facility is where the process is optimized, and staffers work at a 250L scale while developing and implementing quality control measures that include Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards. The Sanford facility is designed for high-quality, efficient supply of gene therapies at clinical- and commercial-scale.

Ricci also points to Paul Mensah, Pfizers Vice President of Bioprocess Research and Development.

He has a nice, pragmatic style and approach in terms of how he continues to foster and leverage innovation, but also the science of how everyone works together to collaborate and deliver. He instills that in the leaders on the team. Ricci said.

Were continuing to focus in terms of career development and the aspirations of each colleague. There are opportunities for colleagues at Pfizer to do anything they want within the realms of the organization." Ricci said. "You can be on the frontlines of early stage development, you can work on the late stage, you can have opportunities for clinical manufacturing. You can run the gamut in terms of different roles with the scientific profile within Pfizer.

About Friedreichs Ataxia

Friedreichs Ataxia (also known as FA or Friedreich Ataxia) is a rare inherited genetic disease that causes movement problems and nervous system damage.Over time, the disease leads to degeneration in the spinal cord, peripheral nerves and cerebellum (the part of the brain that controls synchronization and balance) and causes impaired muscle coordination (ataxia) that gets worse over time. Poor coordination is one of the first noticeable features of FA.The neurological degeneration caused by the disease results in unsteady movements, impaired sensory function, and even the loss of speech. Affected individuals can also develop heart problems, diabetes, or curvature of the spine.However, the disorder does not affect cognitive ability. Though rare, FA affects 1 in every 40,000-50,000 people and is the most common form of hereditary ataxia in the United States.

Gene editing shows promise as tool to fight neuro disorder in babies, UNC study finds – WRAL Tech Wire

CHAPEL HILL Babies born with a faulty maternal copy of the UBE3A gene will develop Angelman syndrome, a severe neurodevelopmental disorderwith no cure and limited treatments. Now, for the first time, scientists at the UNC School of Medicine show that gene editing and gene therapy techniques can be used to restore UBE3A in human neuron cultures and treat deficits in an animal model of Angelman syndrome.

This work, published inNatureand led by senior author Mark Zylka, PhD, Director of theUNC Neuroscience Centerand W.R. Kenan, Jr. Distinguished ProfessorofCell Biology and Physiology, lays important groundwork for a long-lasting treatment or cure for this debilitating disease, as well as a therapeutic path forward for other single-gene disorders.

Our study shows how multiple symptoms associated with Angelman syndrome could be treated with a CRISPR-Cas9 gene therapy, Zylka said.And we are now pursuing this with help of clinicians at UNC-Chapel Hill.

Left: UBE3A gene is off. Right: Using CRISPR, the gene is expressed and neurons fire (yellow). UNC images

Angelman syndrome iscaused by a deletion or mutation of the maternal copy of the gene that encodes the ubiquitin protein ligase E3A (UBE3A). The paternal copy ofUBE3Ais typically silenced in neurons, so the loss of maternalUBE3Aresults in a complete absence of the UBE3A enzyme in most areas of the brain. Thats crucial because the enzyme targets proteins for degradation, a process that maintains normal function of brain cells. When that process goes awry, the result is Angelman syndrome, a brain disorder with symptoms that include severeintellectual and developmental disabilities, seizures, and problems with speech, balance, movement, and sleep.

Turning on the paternal copy ofUBE3Ais an attractive therapeutic strategy because it could reverse the underlying molecular deficiency of the disease, Zylka said. However, the paternal gene is silenced by a long strand of RNA, produced in the antisense orientation toUBE3A,which blocks production of the enzyme from the paternal copy of the gene.

Members of the Zylka lab, including postdoctoral fellows Justin Wolter, PhD, and Giulia Fragola, PhD, set out to devise a way to use CRISPR-Cas9 to restore the UBE3A enzyme to normal levels by disrupting the antisense RNA. Preliminary data in cell cultures were promising, and Zylka received grants fromthe NIH, theAngelman Syndrome Foundation, and the Simons Foundation to test their findings in human neurons and in a mouse model of the disease.

In theNaturepaper, co-first authors Wolter and Hanqian Mao, PhD, a postdoc in the Zylka lab, and UNC colleagues describe using an adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy to deliver the Cas9 protein throughout the brain of embryonic mice that model Angelman syndrome. Because UBE3A is essential for normal brain development, early treatment is crucial. The researchers found that embryonic and early postnatal treatment rescued physical and behavioral phenotypes that model core deficits found in Angelman syndrome patients. Remarkably, a single neonatal injection of AAV unsilenced paternalUbe3afor at least 17 months, and the data suggest this effect is likely to be permanent. The researchers also demonstrated that this approach was effective in human neurons in culture.

We were blown away when we got these results, Zylka said. No other treatments currently being pursued for Angelman syndrome last this long, nor do they treat as many symptoms. I am confident others will eventually recognize the advantages of detecting the mutation that causes Angelman syndrome prenatally and treating shortly thereafter.

Wolter added, The results of treating early were very promising. Since we learned we could reduce the severity of Angelman syndrome in mice, we are now focused on refining our approach in ways that will be suitable for use in humans.

While working to translate this research into the clinic, the Zylka lab will collaborate with researchers at the Carolina Institute for Developmental Disabilities (CIDD)to identify symptoms in babies that have the genetic mutation that causes Angelman syndrome.

Zylkas lab is working with CIDD researchers led by CIDD director Joseph Piven, MD, to use brain imaging and behavior observations to identify symptoms associated with Angelman syndrome in infants. Anecdotal reports suggest these infants have difficulty feeding and reduced muscle tone, but these and other early symptoms have not been rigorously characterized to date.

The idea is to use genetic tests to identify babies that are likely to develop Angelman syndrome, treat prenatally or around the time of birth, and then use these early symptoms as endpoints to evaluate efficacy in a clinical trial, Zylka said. Our data and that of other groups clearly indicate that prenatal treatment has the potential to prevent Angelman syndrome from fully developing.

As part of theNaturestudy, the researchers also found that the gene therapy vector blocked the antisense RNA by integrating into the genome at sites cut by CRISPR-Cas9. This so-called gene trap could be exploited to disrupt other long non-coding RNAs and genes.

Zylka added, We are incredibly excited to keep this work moving forward with the hope of helping children and families overcome this debilitating condition. Support from the NIH, the Simons Foundation, and the Angelman Syndrome Foundation was essential for moving this work forward.

Along with Zylka, Wolter, and Mao, co-authors of the Nature paper are Giulia Fragola, PhD, postdoc in the Zylka lab at the time of this research; Jeremy Simon, PhD, research associate professor; James Krantz, Zylka lab research associate; Hannah Bazick, Zylka lab graduate student; Baris Oztemiz, Zylka lab research technician; and Jason Stein, PhD, assistant professor of genetics and member of the UNC Neuroscience Center; all at UNC-Chapel Hill.

This research was funded by grants from the National Institutes of Health, the Simons Foundation, the Angelman Syndrome Foundation, the Eshelman Institute for Innovation, and the Pfizer-NCBiotech Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellowship in Gene Therapy.

KSQ boosts PARP inhibition in animal models of ovarian and breast cancers with USP1 inhibitor – FierceBiotech

PARP inhibitors like Lynparza from Merck and AstraZeneca have been effective in some patients with ovarian and breast cancers, but many develop resistance to the drugs, and some people dont respond at all. KSQ Therapeutics hopes to provide hope for those patients with a first-in-class drug that may be able to boost Lynparzas effectiveness when used in combination with itand the company has rolled out promising animal data to back up that strategy.

KSQs drug inhibits ubiquitin specific peptidase 1, an enzyme that has been shown to promote the survival of cancer cells by facilitating DNA repair. The drug, dubbed KSQ-4279, inhibited tumor growth both on its own and when combined with Lynparza in mouse models of ovarian and triple-negative breast cancers, the company reported during a presentation at the EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics.

KSQ discovered the drug using a technology platform it calls CRISPRomics, which allows its researchers to identify therapeutic targets by applying CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing to the whole genome. The company has used the platform to study 20,000 human genes in 600 cancer models.

RELATED: KSQ grabs $80M to move T-cell treatment for PD-1 resistance into the clinic

PARP inhibitors work by interrupting DNA repair, but KSQs researchers believe KSQ-4279 inhibits different yet complementary DNA repair pathways, said the companys chief scientific officer, Frank Stegmeier, Ph.D., in a statement.

In multiple animal models of ovarian cancer and triple-negative breast cancer, combining KSQ-4279 with Lynparza was more effective than either drug on its own. The combo approach prompted a complete response in some of the breast cancer models.

PARP inhibitor combinations are gaining steam in the oncology market. In May, the FDA approved a combination of Lynparza with Roches VEGF inhibitor Avastin to treat ovarian cancer with or without BRCA mutations.

Last year, Yale University researchers discovered that AstraZenecas experimental VEGF inhibitor cediranib also prevents DNA repair. The researchers suggested that cediranib could make tumors more responsive to Lynparza and other PARP inhibitors.

As for KSQ, it has grown quickly over the last few years, raising $76 million in 2017 and another $80 million a year later to advance its lead programs, one of which is a T-cell therapy for solid tumors that are resistant to PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitors. KSQ-4279 is now its lead program, and the new data in ovarian and breast cancers give the company confidence to advance the drug into clinical trials as a novel agent in a new class of targeted oncology treatment, Stegmeier said.

Augustinus Bader on his revolutionary approach to skincare – Wallpaper*

Augustinus Bader on his revolutionary approach to skincare

The mind behind the most coveted products in beauty discusses thescience behind the brand

When Augustinus Bader first launched The Cream in 2018, it was hailed as a miracle. In a matter of weeks, it could transform any skin type within any age range, dispelling wrinkles, redness, dryness, scaring, visible pores, sagginess, and practically every other skin concern it would usually take a shelf load of serums to combat. While miraculous, magical, and other mystical attributions caneasily, and quite fairly, be applied to Augustinus Bader products, the real genius of the brand comes down to pure science.

The Augustinus Bader skincarebrand was the by-product of its namesakes development of medical-grade cream, which could heal severe burn injuries to an extent that was previously only possible through skin grafts. Professor Bader, a stem cell and biomedical scientist at Leipzig University, was hoping to get the cream backed by a pharmaceutical company but, in the words of his business partner Charles Rosier, clinical trials cost tens of tens of millions of dollarsand the majority of accidents around burns happen to children, often in third-world countries. For a pharmaceutical company, when the outcome is not necessarily the most profitable outcome, theres less interest.

Inspired to make Baders cream widely available, Rosier encouraged the Professor to translate the principles of his burn cream into skincare. In my mind, I thought, if we create a cream thats superior to whats on the market and its a big success, then he can focus on is research and we can finance the clinical trial.

Baders cream centred around one, revolutionary hypothesisthat the body already possesses all of the stem cells it needs to regenerate itself. The problem, when it comes to the skins inability to heal from severe injuries or just the everyday effects of ageing, is that the bodys ability to trigger those regenerative cells has been impeded.

Bader developed this hypothesis based on two observations. First, that the size of the wound affects the bodys ability to heal. Asmall paper cut heals quickly, while a large scale burn takes time to heal and often leaves scar tissue. Secondly, the body automatically knows where the site of an injury is. When you cut your left hand, your body immediately starts sending cells to the area of the cut so that the skin can rebuild. Yet,the same tissue would never rebuild on your right hand because it rebuilt on your left. Only where there is a wound is the body rebuilding.

In Baders words, If the cut is super small, you would have a small distance between the edges of the cut skin and the cells can still communicate over this small distances through the hand, and would close the wound. But if you burn your hand, the cells would be dying and the signal response cannot arrive at this injury. The response is totally different, the small cut heals perfectly, while on the other side the big injury kills this confirmation.

So the basis of [my] hypothesis is that this is probably just the absence of specific molecules that cannot arrive to the site of the injury because cells are dying or are blocked. So many, many years ago I started trying to find solutions to this problem because genetically speaking were the same human being, why would we have these limitations, why would we have these problems? It doesnt make any sense.

I thought, why not try to replace what the cells would be doing if they were present? That triggering complex, which singles the cells to respond to the injury, or, when it comes to skincarewrinkles, is the secret, miracle likeelement of Baders cream.

Unlike most skincare, which just changes the outside surface of the skin, Baders skincare works from the inside out, transforming the bodys internal, cellular communication for exterior changes. I think ageing is just a lack of repair, a lack of regeneration. Skin is a living organism, which has to be remodelled, meaning repaired a little bit everyday. But you can accelerate this repair lead.

Theres something super, super sensitive inside of you, which are these cells that sense the microenvironment and respond to the need. So the cream, in a way, is only a toolbox, which helps your stem cells when they sense this need to interact more appropriately.

This new approach to the effects of ageing is a revolution in skincare that, no doubt, heralds the beginning of a new science-driven, cellular-focused trend in the industry.

This year, Bader has launched a number of additional products to his line beyond The Cream and its companion The Rich Cream. The new additions include a Cleansing Gel, Face Oil, Body Cream and, as of today, Cleansing Balm with more releases set for the next year.

Getting up there in years comes with its drawbacks and benefits, and the onset of facial lines and volume loss that comes tends to top the list of drawbacks. You can count facial aging right up there with the onslaught of back pain and the occasional grey hair turning into a full head of silver.

How Clinique La Prairie Is Keeping Humanity Fashionably Healthy In The Age Of Covid – Forbes

MONTREUX, SWITZERLAND - the Clinique La Prairie facility

Fashion, beauty, health and wellness are all intertwined. You cant really have one without the other

The Clinique La Prairie (CLP) in Montreux, Switzerland has been purveyors of luxury health and wellness for 89 years. This is Switzerlands thing, and one of the main reasons why people travel to the scenic nation of wellness facilities, mountains and natural springs because the country knows and understands the value of health and wellness, especially in this time of Covid. There are facilities like CLP all over Switzerland, with expert and advanced care that offer an intimate luxury environment. For CLP, its their mission to partner with visitors by providing personalized treatment to help and inspire people to live longer, healthier and better lives.

Our vision is always looking at pioneering longevity, says Simone Gibertoni, the CEO of CLP. As the future of wellness is linked to epigenetics, genomics, mental wellness and many more inspiring sciences, we are also taking a particular interest in research on microbiota, senescent cells and their markers, stress and sleep, circadian rhythms- among other aspects of life science and biology, in an effort to determine how they can be used to promote holistic longevity. This approach is envogue and the most fashionable lifestyle implementation that an individual can make in an effort to promote self-longevity.

So, how has this facility overlooking Lake Geneva been able to carry on a mission and vision of world class wellness- with the aim of opening up CLP facilities in Bangkok and Madrid this year, and, other facilities throughout the Middle East, Asia and the Americas in the future? From its inception in 1931 by Professor Paul Niehans, who pioneered development cell therapy, CLP almost ninety years later has continued to expand due to top health and wellness innovations. With fifty specialists, wellness programs that range from immune-boosting and anti-aging revitalization, and luxury hospitality all combined in a state-of-the-art facility, the clinic has been able to grow after all this time and keep people living longer in the process.

MONTREUX, SWITZERLAND - the Clinique La Prairie facility

We believe that health is not only the absence of illness, but the balance of mind, spirit and body, continues Gibertoni.Our guests have the privilege of being accompanied and advised in the ultimate refinement, and benefit from the expertise of leading specialists, from renowned doctors to experts in sport, wellness, and nutrition.

Pioneering health and wellness in the age of covid

As CLP is leading in immunity, they know this is on everyones mind this year, and they are seeing a demand of people wanting revitalization programs, a type of holistic offering that boosts the immune system, while upgrading the mind and body notes Gibertoni. In response to COVID-19, we have introduced new elements to it, including immuno-fortifying ingredients, enhanced nutrition coaching and wellness solutions to help activate the immune function, Gibertoni says. In its one-week approach, Revitalization helps to combat stress and infections and to improve health related setbacks. The Revitalization has been carried out exclusively at CLP for nearly nine decades and does include the CLP Extract, containing biologically active substances, given in conjunction with bio-stimulants.

Recognizing that todays lifestyle can attack the immune system, CLPs MASTER DETOX program provide solutions. Stress, food treated with pesticides, overconsumption and demanding situations like the current one exposes us to a vast quantity of toxins which affect our bodies regeneration capabilities, which can lead to fatigue, digestive problems, allergies or a weakened immune system, says Gibertoni. And in the age of Covid, these negative factors are a need for the body to be eliminated of toxins and promote physiological balance. In this new MASTER DETOX week, we focus on a Cellular Genomic detoxification protocol, in line with our scientific approach, and as always on individual plans based on the four pillars of medical, nutrition, wellbeing and movement.

MONTREUX, SWITZERLAND - the Clinique La Prairie facility offers one-on-one services about the state ... [+] and health of your body and how to increase longevity.

Fashion and beauty start with wellbeing

Gibertoni gives a fitting example of how beauty is birthed out of a good wellbeing regiment.

The first: every health and wellbeing program is also about revealing beauty, because each creates a bespoke path to feel good inside and out. What you eat, your level of stress, your lifestyle habits, your sleep quality, your possible vitamins deficiencies, ... these are all factors very directly impacting beauty.

For example, nutrition based on antioxidants and nutrients that help reduce internal inflammation will support protection against free radical effects and promote hydration. Through individual consultations about longevity, DNA insights, nutrition and movement, and of course body and skin advanced treatments, many factors are addressed in a holistic way during the week program that the guest spends at CLP, leading to help restore healthy foundations and routines, and ultimately boosting radiance.

MONTREUX, SWITZERLAND - the Clinique La Prairie facility offers holistic treatments like massages.

For CLP, revitalization and their MASTER DETOX program has been tried and tested against a radical anti-aging and medical science, so their programs have been able to stand the test of time with their treatments, technologies and coaching that amplify a persons wellbeing.

The most top fashion model, designer, and fashion connoisseur cant have a successful run at fashion without a proper health and wellness regimen, and an occasional visit to a clinic like CLP if they can afford it.

The second dimension is about CLPs cutting-edge programs that focus specifically on anti-aging and regenerative medicine, with an integrative approach to rejuvenation. We help realize the personal journey to look, feel and live well, with cutting edge anti-aging aesthetics protocols for men and women, where all aspects of the body and face are taken into consideration.

MONTREUX, SWITZERLAND - the Clinique La Prairie facility

They do this through stem cell-based programs of the likes of their Beauty Stem Cells and Cell Boast Facelift, where an individuals own stem cells are clinically harvested and re-injected and they also revitalize the skin using natural resources from ones own body to regenerate and slow down aging. All of this results in restoring a persons youthful appearance. Non-invasive aesthetic medicine delivers the latest solutions in the advancing field of preventive and restorative aesthetics. And their 4-5-day beauty holistic programs utilize a holistic approach to beauty by using non-invasive technologies from CLPs anti-aging research.

We all know the latest runway collections are envogue and we all want to look fashionable and have our beauty top notch. What we do for our bodies, from what we put into it and how we treat it will result in our beauty and make us illuminate our various and unique fashion styles. CLP gets people there by going deeper and under the surface by identifying nutritional and lifestyle changes that their visitors need to implement into their lives. All of this leaves people looking radiant, sculpted, balanced and more youthful by the time they leave our facility, as Gibertoni points out and it provides long-lasting effects.
