Chroma Medicine Announces Data Demonstrating the Benefits of Epigenetic Editing for Multiplex Gene Regulation at ASGCT 2023
Boston, MA, May 19, 2023 – Chroma Medicine, Inc., (Chroma) a genomic medicine company pioneering single-dose epigenetic editing therapeutics, today presented data demonstrating the advantages of epigenetic editing for multiplex gene regulation at the American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy (ASGCT) 26th Annual Meeting in Los Angeles. Chroma’s epigenetic editing platform harnesses the cell’s endogenous mechanism for regulating gene expression to durably modulate transcription without cutting or nicking the DNA, offering a potentially safer approach for multiplex editing. This avoids challenges associated with gene editing methods that rely upon DNA breaks to alter gene expression, which have the potential…
