Liquid biopsy tests in oncology involve isolating entities such as circulating tumor cells (CTC), circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and tumor-derived exosomes. These tumor-derived entities are used to derive genomic and proteomic data. The cfDNA that originates from tumors is called circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA).

The study’s primary result will be the proportion of patients attaining a functional treatment, defined as an off-therapy loss of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and HBV DNA from the serum. The treatment, VERVE-101, is a base editor; that is, it does not cut DNA as CRISPR gene editing systems do.

Messenger RNA (mRNA) has come into focus within the drug discovery and development as an exciting tool to deliver genetic information. mRNA is a molecule made up of a single strand of ribonucleic acid (RNA). Today, there are several other categories of RNA therapeutics with drugs already approved or currently in development.

The tool targets the epigenome, the collection of DNA modifications in a cell such as methylation and post-translational histone modifications. These modifications regulate gene expression without changing the sequence or structure of DNA. DNA methylation occurs endogenously in all mammalian cells in response to various stimuli.

CRISPR is notable for engineering living cells, allowing scientists to edit, turn off, delete, or replace genes in a cell’s genome. Viral vectors have traditionally been used in gene editing where the shells of viruses carry the template DNA into cells, but this method has its disadvantages.

If the gene does not integrate into the genome, the cell will not become a CAR T cell. Furthermore, even if the transgene enters the cell in the correct numbers, the location where the gene integrates into the genome is somewhat random. The gene could also bury itself in a silenced region of the genome, leaving the gene dormant.
