What is CRISPR gene editing?

CRISPR is a technology that allows scientists to make precise changes to specific locations in the DNA to correct mutations. For LAMA2-RD, CRISPR-based approaches are still at an early research stage, but the technology holds long-term promise to correct mutations in the LAMA2 gene.

Why is there currently no cure for LAMA2-RD? What research studies are currently underway? How long does it take to develop a new treatment? What are the stages of drug development? What is a natural history study? Why are natural history studies important? What is a patient registry? Why should I participate in a patient registry? Which universities and institutions are researching LAMA2-RD? Which companies are developing therapies? What are the biggest scientific challenges? Which treatment approaches are being investigated? What is gene therapy? What are stem cell therapies? What are antisense therapies?
