Previous wording

In September 2025, we announced the nomination of our leadin vivo development candidate, EDIT-401, an experimental, potential best-in-class, one-time therapy to significantly reduce LDL-cholesterol (“LDL-C”) through upregulation of the LDL receptor (“LDLR”). EDIT-401 is designed to treat elevated levels of LDL-C, or hyperlipidemia, by directly editing the noncoding region of the LDLR gene to increase LDLR protein expression and reduce LDL-C levels. In preclinical studies, a single dose of EDIT-401 achieved approximately 90% or greater mean reductions in LDL-C, lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)), an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (“ASCVD”), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB), a key measure of total plaque-causing cholesterol particles and predictive measure for ASCVD, with rapid and dose-dependent effect, in non-human primates (“NHPs”). LDL-C mean reduction of 90% or greater with a single dose of EDIT-401 in NHPs was durable through approximately six months. In addition, in our preclinical studies, including an ongoing Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) toxicology study in NHPs, a single dose of EDIT-401 of 1.5 mg/kg had no adverse clinical observations, no notable treatment-related liver enzyme elevations, and no liver histopathology findings in non-GLP toxicology.

EDIT-401 is designed to treat elevated levels of LDL-C, or hyperlipidemia, by directly editing the noncoding region of the LDLR gene to increase LDLR protein expression and reduce LDL-C levels. In ongoing preclinical studies in non-human primates (“NHPs”), a single dose of EDIT-401 achieved approximately 90% or greater reductions in LDL-C that were maintained over 10 months, and approximately 90% mean reductions in lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)), an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (“ASCVD”), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB), a key measure of total plaque-causing cholesterol particles and predictive measure for ASCVD, that were maintained over three months. In addition, in our preclinical studies of EDIT-401 it has demonstrated a consistent safety profile with targeted delivery to the liver, no evidence of genotoxicity, and no adverse liver findings at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg.

Previous wording

We continue to progress towards initiating a Phase 1/2 clinical trial of EDIT-401 in patients with Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (“HeFH”). We have made a submission to the Human Research Ethics Committee in Australia for the trial and are on track to submit a Clinical Trial Notification in August 2026. The Phase 1/2 clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a single dose of EDIT-401. The trial is designed in two parts. Part 1 is expected to be a single ascending dose, dose-finding study. Eligible patients will have a clinical diagnosis of HeFH with an elevated LDL-C despite treatment with two or more lipid lowering therapies. We plan to complete enrollment of Part 1 and have topline data results available in 2027. We expect that Part 2 of the trial will be a single-dose randomized, placebo-controlled expansion study, and that if the data from the Phase 1/2 trial warrant advancing EDIT-401, we would advance EDIT-401 into a single, pivotal randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 clinical trial in patients with HeFH, with or without existing ASCVD or coronary artery disease. These clinical trial plans are subject to further discussion and alignment with regulatory authorities. We have selected four clinical trial sites across Australia and New Zealand. We expect to report a data update in the first quarter of 2027 and share data from at least three patients in the EDIT-401 Phase 1/2 trial by the end of the third quarter of 2027.

Current wording

In October 2026, we announced that we had received approval to initiate the Phase 1/2 Strive clinical trial of EDIT-401 in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (“HeFH”) in Australia. The trial has received Human Research Ethics Committee approval and completed the Clinical Trial Notification process with Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration and has also been submitted for review in New Zealand. If approved in New Zealand, patients in both countries will be eligible to enroll in the Strive trial. The Strive trial is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a single dose of EDIT-401. The trial is designed in two parts: Part 1 is a single ascending dose, dose-finding, open-label trial. Eligible patients will have a clinical diagnosis of HeFH with an elevated LDL-C despite treatment with two or more lipid lowering therapies. We expect that Part 2 will be a single-dose randomized, placebo-controlled expansion study. If the data from the Phase 1/2 trial warrants advancing EDIT-401, we would advance EDIT-401 into a single, pivotal randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 clinical trial in patients with HeFH, with or without existing ASCVD or coronary artery disease. We have selected six clinical trial sites across Australia and New Zealand. We are on track to begin patient dosing in 2026 and report initial safety and tolerability data in the first quarter of 2027. We expect to complete enrollment in Part 1 of the Strive study, with topline safety and efficacy results from Part 1 available in the second half of 2027.

Our discovery and development efforts further include HSCs and other cells and tissues. Building on our experiencein our clinical trials of renizgamglogene autogedtemcel (“reni-cel”), we have achievedin vivo preclinical proof-of-concept data of HSC editing in NHPs. In addition, we previously announcedin vivo delivery to two additional cell types in humanized mice using our proprietary LNP targeting platform, demonstrating the “plug ‘n play” potential of our proprietary extrahepatic LNP platform. We intend to continue optimizing candidates for our HSC program and exploring other cell types and tissues for development, but are focusing our resources on the advancement of our lead EDIT-401 program.

We are pursuing the right combination of gene editing and targeted delivery tools through internal development and the in-licensing of complementary technologies to build our preclinical pipeline and accelerate the achievement of our goal of delivering lifesaving medicines to patients with previously untreatable diseases. Through in-licensing of complementary technologies, we can expand our existing gene editing platform and further drive the development of ourin vivo pipeline. This was demonstrated with our entry in 2024 into a collaboration and license agreement to access LNPs targeting the liver, including the LNP we are using in our EDIT-401 program. We also actively seek opportunities to out-license and partner our robust intellectual property portfolio to drive the development of CRISPR-based medicines in therapeutic areas outside of our core focus and to provide non-dilutive capital. For example, we are leveraging partnerships to progress engineered cell medicines to treat various cancers, including in our collaboration with Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (“BMS”) through its wholly owned subsidiary, Juno Therapeutics, Inc. (“Juno Therapeutics”). This collaboration, which leverages our Cas9 and AsCas12a platform technologies, seeks to advance alpha-beta T-cell experimental medicines for the treatment of solid tumors, liquid tumors, and autoimmune disease, and has resulted in 14 total programs to date, including BMS’ CD19 HD Allo CAR T program for the treatment of autoimmune disease currently in Phase I clinical development. The term for BMS to opt-in to additional research programs expires in November 2026, but our collaboration with respect to those ongoing programs that have been selected will continue past that date.

Previous wording

We recognize revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Topic 606, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 606”). Accordingly, we recognize revenue following the five-step model prescribed under Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation. We only apply the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration we are entitled to in exchange for the goods or services we transfer to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and determine those that are performance obligations, and whether each promised good or service is distinct. We then recognize as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. As part of the accounting for these arrangements, we must develop assumptions that require judgment to determine the standalone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract and use judgment in the determination of the transaction price and the application of the constraint. The determination of standalone selling price has not had a significant impact on the accounting for our revenue arrangements given the nature of the performance obligations. We have also not been required to apply significant judgment in determining the transaction price given the nature of the variable consideration and the application of the constraint.
