Approximately 300 million people globally and more than 1 million people in the US are estimated to have chronic hepatitis B infection. An estimated 15% to 40% of patients with HBV infections may develop complications, such as cirrhosis, liver failure, or liver cancer, which account for the majority of HBV-related deaths. Since the mid-1990s, there has been minimal innovation in addressing this issue. At Precision Biosciences, we are committed to addressing this challenge by pioneering bold initiatives for the infected patient populations through revolutionary genome editing treatments. #WorldHepatitisDay #HepatitisBTreatment #GeneEditing #Biotech #DTIL

We're honored to have Wendy Shoop, PhD, represent the Precision team at the United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation’s (UMDF) Mitochondrial Medicine 2024 Conference! Wendy shared details from our lead PBGENE-PMM program targeting m.3243 mitochondrial disease and showcased the broader applicability of ARCUS to target other mitochondrial mutations. Given ARCUS’ ability to target the root cause of disease, we are excited by our data generated to date and are working diligently to advance PBGENE-PMM towards an Investigational New Drug and/or Clinical Trial Application in 2025.

Here's what the Precision team has been up to this week! ✅ Precision presented late-breaking data at the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) in Milan. ✅ Precision released preclinical data highlighting PBGENE-HBV's ability to specifically cut HBV DNA leading to elimination of cccDNA and inactivation of integrated HBV DNA without impacting any sites in the human genome, including no editing-associated translocations in HBV infected primary human hepatocytes; PBGENE-HBV was well tolerated across multiple administrations with no off-target editing observed; preclinical safety data supports advancement of PBGENE-HBV to clinical trials as a potentially curative, finite treatment for chronic hepatitis B with IND and/or CTA on-track for submission in 2024. ✅ Precision's Emily Harrison, PhD, Senior Scientist - Hepatitis Research Leader, and Cassie Gorsuch, PhD, VP Gene Therapy, spoke at The HBV Forum in Milan about the Company's PBGENE-HBV program. The Company's work to date continues to highlight the potential of PBGENE-HBV as a curative treatment for chronic hepatitis B and further validates our ARCUS® platform to potentially deliver safe and efficacious in vivo gene editing therapies.

The new preclinical safety data that we presented at EASL | The Home of Hepatology Congress for our clinical candidate, PBGENE-HBV, was featured in BioWorld. Current treatment options achieve viral suppression but do not eliminate cccDNA and inactivate integrated HBV DNA. Our in vivo gene editing therapy, PBGENE-HBV, offers a potential functional cure for chronic hepatitis B.
