Today, a brief rundown of news involving Intellia Therapeutics and ArriVent BioPharma, as well as updates from Atara Biotherapeutics, Amylyx Pharmaceuticals and InnoCare Pharma that you may have missed.Gene editing specialist Intellia Therapeutics has dosed the first patient in a Phase 3 study of its in vivo CRISPR therapy for the rare disease hereditary angioedema, or HAE. The placebo-controlled study will test the efficacy of Intellias drug, dubbed NTLA-2002, in 60 adults with either Type 1 or Type 2 HAE, which can cause severe swelling attacks. The company expects to complete enrollment in the second half of this year and, pending positive results, to submit for U.S. approval in 2026. Updated follow-up data from a Phase 1/2 study will be presented this year, Intellia said Wednesday. Delilah AlvaradoArriVent BioPharma has struck a deal with Shanghai-based Lepu Biopharma Co. to gain access to an antibody-drug conjugate for gastrointestinal cancer. ArriVent, which went public one year ago, will pay $47 million to Lepu for rights outside of China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan to develop and market the ADC, dubbed MRG007. Arrivent plans to soon ask for a green light to begin clinical testing in the U.S. Lepu could receive up to $1.16 billion in additional milestone payments. Delilah AlvaradoThe Food and Drug Administration has put on hold on clinical testing by Atara Biotherapeutics, including studies testing its drug Ebvallo as well as an earlier-stage CAR-T cell therapy. The hold, which halts the screening and enrollment of new patients into Ataras trials, is due to compliance issues flagged by FDA inspectors at a recent visit to a third-party manufacturing site. Those issues also led to the agencys recent rejection of Ebvallo for post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease associated with Epstein-Barr virus. Atara said its discussed remedies with the FDA and will work expeditiously to resolve the holds. Ned PagliaruloAmylyx Pharmaceuticals can move forward with a Phase 1 trial testing its experimental medicine AMX0114 for ALS after the FDA lifted a clinical hold on the study. In a statement Tuesday, Amylyx said will now work to screen, enroll and dose patients across sites in the U.S. The company, which was forced to withdraw from market an earlier ALS drug after follow-up testing showed it didnt work, plans to soon begin a Phase 1 study of AMX0114 in Canada. Early data from testing of AMX0114 could come later this year. Ned PagliaruloProlium Bioscience, a startup backed by RTW Investments, has licensed an experimental bispecific antibody from China-based developers InnoCare Pharma and KeyMed Biosciences, according to a Monday statement from the latter companies. Dubbed ICP-B02, the antibody drug binds to both CD20, a protein found on the surface of tumor cells, and CD3, an immune cell protein. Prolium will have rights to develop the drug for oncology indications in ex-Asia regions and globally for indications outside of oncology. Payments to InnoCare and KeyMed could total as much as $520 million, including an unspecified upfront fee. Ned Pagliarulo '
