Nine months after Eli Lilly’s Prevail Therapeutics reduced the biobucks value of a gene editing deal with Precision Biosciences, the Big Pharma subsidiary has walked away from the partnership entirely.
BRISBANE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 17, 2023-- Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sangamo”, Nasdaq: SGMO), a genomic medicine company, today announced it has signed an evaluation and option agreement with Prevail Therapeutics (“Prevail”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Eli Lilly and Company, through which Prevail has been granted rights to evaluate certain proprietary adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsids developed by Sangamo and may exercise certain options to license these capsids for multiple undisclosed neurological targets. Generated through Sangamo’s AAV capsid engineering platform, SIFTER (Selecting In vivo For Transduction and Expression of RNA), these capsids have demonstrated a potential for high efficiency delivery of investigatory gene therapy constructs to the central nervous system in pre-clinical animal models following administration into the cerebrospinal fluid and seek to optimize delivery of therapeutics to a range of previously inaccessible areas.
Eli Lilly’s Prevail Therapeutics has changed up a licensing agreement with gene therapy biotech Precision Therapeutics, dropping the biobucks value and seeking a bigger share of pre-clinical duties.
