Beam Therapeutics develops precision genetic medicines using base editing technology that makes single-letter DNA changes without cutting the double helix.
Beam Therapeutics is a genetic medicines company founded in 2017 by base editing pioneers David Liu, J. Keith Joung, and Feng Zhang, having raised over $600M and gone public on Nasdaq. The company is built around base editing, a technology that makes precise single nucleotide changes in DNA without creating double-strand breaks, reducing the risk of unintended insertions or deletions compared to traditional CRISPR. Beam is developing a portfolio of base editing medicines targeting blood disorders, liver diseases, and immuno-oncology, including sickle cell disease, beta-thalassemia, and various cancers. The company also employs prime editing, a newer and even more precise gene editing modality for more complex genetic changes. Beam's pipeline includes both in vivo therapies delivered directly into the body and ex vivo cell therapy approaches where patient cells are edited outside the body and reinfused. As a clinical-stage company, Beam has programs in IND-enabling and Phase 1 trials and represents one of the most advanced next-generation gene editing platforms in development.
Finch Therapeutics develops microbiome-based medicines targeting the gut-brain and gut-immune axis with programs in autism spectrum disorder and C. difficile.
Finch Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company founded in 2015 that develops microbiome medicines targeting the relationship between the gut microbiome and systemic diseases. The company is focused on two primary therapeutic areas: gastrointestinal infections including C. difficile and conditions involving the gut-brain axis including autism spectrum disorder where gut microbiome alterations have been associated with symptom severity. Finch's lead microbiome program CP101 targets recurrent C. difficile infection, competing in the same emerging microbiome therapeutics space as Seres Therapeutics. The company also conducts research on the COMET platform for autism spectrum disorder, exploring whether microbiome restoration can improve behavioral symptoms through the gut-brain connection. Finch has raised over $165M and has conducted multiple clinical trials of its microbiome medicines. The company's autism program represents a particularly innovative and scientifically ambitious program given the emerging evidence that gut microbiome composition influences neurological development and behavior. Finch's work contributes to the broader scientific validation of microbiome medicine as a legitimate therapeutic class beyond C. difficile.
