Verve is taking a stepwise approach to clinical development with our single-course gene editing programs.
Verve is advancing a pipeline of single-course in vivo gene editing programs intended to safely inactivate genes in the liver that contribute to ASCVD risk. Our initial programs target the PCSK9, ANGPTL3 and LPA genes, which have been validated via human genetics and human pharmacology as targets for lowering blood lipid levels. We envision expanding beyond these programs to develop a suite of single-course gene editing medicines that could address additional independent causes of ASCVD in the future.
