💡 👨🔬 Breakthrough Multi-Cancer Early Detection Research Findings at Prestigious American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting 2024 in Chicago 🌎 Dr. Le Son Tran, the SPOT-MAS R&D Team leader from Medical Genetics Institute Ho Chi Minh City and Gene Solutions is set to present breakthrough findings at the upcoming prestigious oncology conference this weekend. Since 2022, Gene Solutions kicked off the largest and most comprehensive multi-center prospective study, K-DETEK, to clinically validate the diagnostic performance of SPOT-MAS - recruiting 10,027 asymptomatic individuals aged 40 years or older. Our team is looking forward to share our findings at our poster session. The MCED team at Medical Genetics Institute Ho Chi Minh City and Gene Solutions developed a novel approach - Screening for the Presence Of Tumor by Methylation And Size (SPOT-MAS), which offers a comprehensive analysis through the integration of methylation, fragment length profile, DNA copy number aberration and end motif in a single library reaction. It was designed to simultaneously detect five common types of cancer, including liver, breast, colorectal, gastric, and lung cancer, and predict the tissue origin of cancer signal. Read more about our K-DETEK study abstract here: https://lnkd.in/gjNd9unN Future of Oncology: The strong performance of the K-DETEK study underpins the potential to shape the future direction of oncology research and treatment. The research team welcomes collaborative opportunities and anticipates our participation at ASCO Annual Meeting will provide a platform for collaboration among top oncology professionals. The conference will run from May 31 to June 4, at McCormick Place, Chicago USA and is also available online. It is an opportunity not to be missed for anyone interested in the forefront of cancer research. Our team is happy to meet up at ASCO in person - please DM us if you are keen to connect, or join us at our poster session: https://lnkd.in/gk83xwjG #MCED #SPOTMAS #KDETEK #earlydetectionsaveslives

Our Selective Organ Targeting (SORT) next-generation lipid nanoparticle (LNP) platform has been a cornerstone in our research efforts to restore ciliary function in the lungs of people with PCD caused by pathogenic mutations in the DNAI1 gene. Developed in collaboration with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and UT Southwestern Medical Center, our mRNA-based therapy is optimized and formulated in SORT LNPs, which are engineered with a biochemically distinct fifth lipid to help the body “sort” and direct the LNPs to targeted cells and organs. Preclinical data show that our DNAI1 mRNA leads to DNAI1 protein production in target cells and can rescue ciliary function. In cell-based knock-out models, the restored ciliary function persisted for weeks after the last treatment. Through continued research, we aim to develop a much-needed therapy for people with PCD and highlight the vast potential of mRNA-based therapies for other rare and common genetic diseases.

ARM commends the U.S. House of Representatives for passing legislation to reauthorize the FDA's Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher (RPD PRV) program for five years. Genetic abnormalities are responsible for 80% of rare diseases, and nearly 70% of these conditions present during childhood. However, approximately 95% of those disorders lack an FDA-approved treatment. For many rare disease patients, the availability of cell and gene therapies offers hope for a cure. RPD PRVs enable biotechnology companies developing treatments for rare pediatric diseases to continue to invest in bringing cell and gene therapies to patients in need. What’s next? The Senate HELP Committee will mark up the Creating Hope Reauthorization Act (S. 4583) on September 26. ARM continues to urge Congress to reauthorize the RPD PRV Program. For more information, check out ARM’s one-pager on the impact of this program. https://lnkd.in/eVZCGGuu #cellandgenetherapy

More encouraging interim results in the CNS space this week from Lexeo Therapeutics and their LX2006 AAV gene therapy for Friedreich ataxia (FA) cardiomyopathy. Here are a few of my thoughts: 🌟 Similar to what we saw for Huntington’s disease last week, the FA pipeline is small with very few therapies specifically targeting cardiomyopathy. All positive data should be welcomed for the patients, caregivers, and families of those affected. 🌟 It's great to see regulatory incentives for development of rare disease therapies in action. The asset has been granted Rare Pediatric Disease designation, along with Fast Track designation, and Orphan Drug designation. 🌟 As with all severe progressive diseases, I support the use of natural history data for analyses, especially in the early phases of development. Lexeo's press release is attached below.

4 important approvals by FDA this week: - expanded approval for Sarepta Therapeutics' #Elevidys, a gene therapy to treat ambulatory and non-ambulatory individuals aged four and older suffering from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Of note, the primary endpoint of improving motor function failed, but the secondary endpoints were met.https://https://lnkd.in/eyyS8XNh. - Merck's #Keytruda was authorized in combination with chemotherapy followed by the PD-1 inhibitor as a monotherapy in patients suffering from primary advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer (40th U.S. indication approved).https://lnkd.in/eXZSnayr. - accelerated approval for GENFIT / Ipsen 's #Iqirvo (elafibranor) as a first-in-class treatment for primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). a rare liver disease. https://lnkd.in/e725xksQ. - approval for AbbVie's #Skyrizi (anti-IL23 mA ) to treat moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis in adults. https://lnkd.in/erC6Ga2z

Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News reports encouraging Phase I #ClinicalTrial results of an mRNA vaccine developed at the University of Florida for potential treatment of #Glioblastoma. In a small first-in-human trial, this personalized vaccine reprogrammed the immune system to attack tumors, achieving rapid and robust responses. Initial results mirror those from preclinical and canine studies. Next step: an expanded Phase I trial with adults and children. https://lnkd.in/ekx9FBfT #CancerResearch #Immunotherapy #MedicalInnovation #Glioblastoma #mRNA #ClinicalTrials #MERITCRO #YourClinicalTrialEndpointExpert

MHP, PA - Founder/Executive Director - CureCMT4J; RareMom/Speaker/Writer--A Rare Parent (rareparent.com)
So much gratitude to California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) for recognizing our rock-solid science and bringing us one step closer to a long-awaited clinical trial in AAV9 gene therapy. We absolutely cannot do any of this without funding from entities like CIRM. Rare Diseases need and deserve more CIRM's. We are at the point in AAV technology where we can move more quickly, use learnings from previous disorders--rinse, repeat--different gene and endpoints, but otherwise much the same. We have the science and the ability to move faster. What we lack, still, is funding. 50 rare gene therapies still sitting on shelves since 2021. #curecmt4j #ruduffenough As always, we couldn't do this without Elpida Therapeutics and Terry Pirovolakis driving it all. #rareiscommon
