Review of first clinical data from ongoing Phase 1/2 Study of NTLA-2002 for the treatment of hereditary angioedema (HAE) presented at the 2022 Bradykinin Symposium
Event to include interim safety and serum TTR reduction data from the cardiomyopathy arm of the Phase 1 study of NTLA-2001 for the treatment of transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intellia Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:NTLA), a leading clinical-stage genome editing company focused on developing potentially curative therapeutics leveraging CRISPR-based technologies, today announced that it will host a virtual investor event to present interim data from the first-in-human clinical studies of NTLA-2002 and NTLA-2001 on September 16, 2022, at 8:00 a.m. ET.
NTLA-2002 First Interim Clinical Data Review
Intellia will review the interim clinical data from the Phase 1/2 study of NTLA-2002 for the treatment of hereditary angioedema (HAE), which is scheduled to be presented at the 2022 Bradykinin Symposium on September 16 in Berlin, Germany. The presentation will focus on the initial safety, kallikrein protein reduction and HAE attack rate data from the dose-escalation portion of the study. NTLA-2002 is Intellia’s wholly owned, second systemically administered in vivo CRISPR candidate.
NTLA-2001 Interim Clinical Data Update from the Cardiomyopathy Arm
Intellia will present interim clinical data from the ongoing Phase 1 study of NTLA-2001 for the treatment of transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis. The study update will focus on the dose-escalation portion of the cardiomyopathy arm of the study. The event will include a presentation by Julian Gillmore, M.D., Ph.D., FRCP, FRCPath, Professor of Medicine, National Amyloidosis Centre, UCL Division of Medicine, Royal Free Hospital, U.K., the trial’s national coordinating investigator. NTLA-2001, which is being developed as part of a multi-target collaboration with Regeneron, is being evaluated in patients with either ATTR amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN) or ATTR amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM).

Based on Nobel Prize-winning CRISPR/Cas9 technology, NTLA-2002 is the first single-dose investigational treatment being explored in clinical trials for the potential to continuously reduce kallikrein activity and prevent attacks in people living with hereditary angioedema (HAE). NTLA-2002 is a wholly owned investigational CRISPR therapeutic candidate designed to inactivate the kallikrein B1 (KLKB1) gene, which encodes for prekallikrein, the kallikrein precursor protein. NTLA-2002 is Intellia’s second investigational CRISPR therapeutic candidate to be administered systemically, by intravenous infusion, to edit disease-causing genes inside the human body with a single dose of treatment. Intellia’s proprietary non-viral platform deploys lipid nanoparticles to deliver to the liver a two-part genome editing system: guide RNA specific to the disease-causing gene and messenger RNA that encodes the Cas9 enzyme, which together carry out the precision editing.
Based on Nobel Prize-winning CRISPR/Cas9 technology, NTLA-2001 could potentially be the first single-dose treatment for ATTR amyloidosis. NTLA-2001 is the first investigational CRISPR therapy candidate to be administered systemically, or through a vein, to edit genes inside the human body. Intellia’s proprietary non-viral platform deploys lipid nanoparticles to deliver to the liver a two-part genome editing system: guide RNA specific to the disease-causing gene and messenger RNA that encodes the Cas9 enzyme, which carries out the precision editing. Robust preclinical data, showing deep and long-lasting transthyretin (TTR) reduction following in vivo inactivation of the target gene, supports NTLA-2001’s potential as a single-administration therapeutic. Intellia leads development and commercialization of NTLA-2001 as part of a multi-target discovery, development and commercialization collaboration with Regeneron.
