However, the investigator determined that the death was unrelated to BEAM-101.\nThe Data Safety Monitoring Committee and FDA reviewed the case.\nIn all patients dosed, there were no ≥ Grade 3 adverse events (AEs) or serious AEs related to BEAM-101.\nPreliminary efficacy data showed that all patients achieved over 60% fetal hemoglobin (HbF, the main oxygen carrier protein in the human fetus) and less than 40% HbS (an abnormal type of hemoglobin that causes sickle cell disease) of non-transfused hemoglobin at Month 1, sustained through all time points.\nMarkers of hemolysis (destruction of red blood cells) normalized or improved for all patients.\nNo vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs, painful complication of sickle cell anemia) were reported by investigators following BEAM-101 treatment.\nBeam Therapeutics said patient enrollment in the Phase 1/2 trial of BEAM-302 in patients with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is progressing. Site activation globally has continued, and dosing has been completed for the first cohort.\nBeam has nominated a development candidate for its ESCAPE technology comprised of two investigational drug products: BEAM-103, an anti-CD117 monoclonal antibody (mAb), and BEAM-104, a cell therapy that includes the same therapeutic edit as BEAM-101 (editing the HBG1/2 genes to elevate fetal hemoglobin), plus an additional edit to CD117 which is designed to prevent binding of BEAM-103, allowing the edited cells to evade suppression by the antibody.\nThe company intends to advance BEAM-103 and BEAM-104 for development in SCD and beta-thalassemia.\nBeam Therapeutics ended the third quarter of 2024 with $925.8 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, providing a cash runway into 2027.\nPrice Action: BEAM stock is down 2.40% at $23.78 at the last check on Tuesday.\nRead Next:\n\nNvidia Takes Short-Lived Lead Over Apple In Valuation\n\nUNLOCKED: 5 NEW TRADES EVERY WEEK.
