Beam Therapeutics
Beam Therapeutics, based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, develops base-editing medicines — a next-generation gene-editing approach that swaps a single DNA letter without cutting both strands of the helix, aimed at improving precision and reducing off-target effects compared with CRISPR/Cas9. Programs span sickle cell disease, beta thalassemia, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), and engineered T-cell therapies for hematologic cancers.
