(Nasdaq: PRME), a biotechnology company committed to delivering a new class of differentiated one-time curative genetic therapies, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared the Company\u2019s Investigational New Drug (IND) application for PM647, an investigational <em>in vivo<\/em> Prime Editor for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD). The clearance enables PM647 to proceed to clinical study initially in the United States, where approximately 100,000 people carry the PiZZ genotype that PM647 is designed to correct.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFDA clearance of the PM647 IND is an important milestone for Prime Medicine, marking continued momentum across our liver franchise,\u201d said Allan Reine, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Prime Medicine. \u201cPM647 has the potential to change how AATD is treated, offering a Prime Editing-based approach that moves beyond protein replacement and targets the root cause of disease. By correcting the underlying mutation and restoring production of fully functional AAT, PM647 may simultaneously address both lung and liver manifestations of AATD and provide a differentiated, one-time treatment approach for patients. Beyond its therapeutic potential, PM647 demonstrates the repeatability and productivity of Prime Medicine\u2019s platform. Just months after regulatory clearances for PM577a, the advancement of PM647 into clinical development also reinforces how Prime Medicine&#8217;s modular platform and universal liver LNP can support the rapid progression of multiple programs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Phase 1\/2 Clinical Trial<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>The Phase 1\/2 clinical trial will be a global, single-arm, open-label, first-in-human study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary clinical efficacy of ascending doses of a one-time intravenous infusion of PM647 in adults with AATD. The study will initially enroll adult participants with lung-only manifestations of AATD. Upon demonstration of tolerability in lung-only participants, the study will expand to include a separate cohort enrolling adults with significant liver disease, with or without concurrent lung manifestations of AATD.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About PM647<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>PM647 is an investigational, one-time <em>in vivo<\/em> Prime Editor designed to correct the E342K (Pi*Z) mutation in the SERPINA1 gene, the most common cause of AATD. By correcting the mutation at its source, PM647 is designed to restore production of functional M-AAT and address both the liver and lung manifestations of the disease. In fully humanized mouse models, PM647 achieved high editing efficiency and restored corrected M-AAT protein into the healthy human range at clinically relevant doses with a single infusion. PM647 uses the same liver-directed lipid nanoparticle (LNP) as PM577a, Prime Medicine&#8217;s investigational program for Wilson disease.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency is an inherited genetic disorder caused by variants in the <em>SERPINA1<\/em> gene. In people with severe disease, insufficient functional alpha-1 antitrypsin can lead to progressive lung damage, while accumulation of mutant protein in the liver can cause progressive liver disease. Patients have no approved curative treatment that addresses the underlying genetic cause of both manifestations of the disease. Approximately 200,000 people are estimated to carry the PiZZ genotype across United States and Europe.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Prime Medicine<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Prime Medicine is a leading biotechnology company dedicated to creating and delivering the next generation of gene editing therapies to patients. The Company is deploying its proprietary Prime Editing platform, a versatile, precise and efficient gene editing technology, to develop a new class of differentiated one-time curative genetic therapies. Designed to make only the right edit at the right position within a gene while minimizing unwanted DNA modifications, Prime Editors have the potential to repair almost all types of genetic mutations and work in many different tissues, organs and cell types. Taken together, Prime Editing\u2019s versatile gene editing capabilities could unlock opportunities across thousands of potential indications.<\/p>\n<p>Prime Medicine is currently progressing a diversified portfolio of investigational therapeutic programs organized around its core areas of focus: liver, lung, and immunology and oncology. Across each core area, Prime Medicine is focused initially on a set of high-value programs, each targeting a disease with well-understood biology and a clearly defined clinical development and regulatory path, and each expected to provide the foundation for expansion into additional opportunities. Over time, the Company intends to maximize Prime Editing\u2019s broad and versatile therapeutic potential, as well as the modularity of the Prime Editing platform, to rapidly and efficiently expand beyond the diseases in its current pipeline, potentially including additional genetic diseases, immunological diseases, cancers, infectious diseases, and targeting genetic risk factors in common diseases, which collectively impact millions of people.
