Disc Medicine, Inc. (IRON) and Verve Therapeutics (VERV) fall on study updates.
Verve (VERV) stops enrollment in the phase Ib study of gene therapy candidate VERVE-10 to reduce disease-driving low-density lipoprotein cholesterol due to safety issues. Stock plunges on the news.
Verve Therapeutics said on Tuesday that it had paused enrollment for an early-stage study testing its experimental gene editing therapy for high cholesterol after a patient experienced a severe drug-related adverse event. The company was testing the therapy in patients with a genetic condition that leads to high cholesterol levels, which raises the risk of heart disease. The treatment is supposed to permanently turn off a protein called PCSK9 helping reduce blood cholesterol levels.
