FSHD University – Epic Bio’s FSHD Program
July 20, 2023 - 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Epic Bio, a San Francisco based therapeutics company, is developing a gene therapy medicine specifically for FSHD patients. The new product, termed EPI-321, leverages a CRISPR-based platform to precisely find and fix the specific issue in the genome that causes FSHD. It works by restoring a process called methylation to repair the root cause of the disease without altering the DNA sequence. EPI-321 is an AAV-based gene therapy product delivered one time via intravenous infusion.
