CRISPR Therapeutics AG

CRISPR Therapeutics AG works on 11 rare diseases tracked on Trial Friend, including Dermatomyositis, Hodgkin Lymphoma, Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia and 8 more, with 5 recruiting clinical trials.

CRISPR Therapeutics develops CRISPR/Cas9-based gene-editing therapies for serious diseases. Casgevy (exagamglogene autotemcel), co-developed with Vertex Pharmaceuticals, was the first CRISPR-based therapy approved by the FDA for sickle cell disease (December 2023) and transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia (January 2024). The pipeline includes CTX112, an allogeneic CAR-T therapy for B-cell malignancies, and CTX310 targeting ANGPTL3 for cardiovascular disease, and CTX320 targeting lipoprotein(a).

CRISPR Therapeutics AG Drug Pipeline

CRISPR Therapeutics AG has 5 active clinical trials across 3 development stages, with 5 currently recruiting participants. Clinical trials advance through phases: Phase 1 tests safety in a small group, Phase 2 evaluates effectiveness and side effects, Phase 3 confirms benefit in a larger population, and Phase 4 monitors long-term safety after FDA approval.

Note: This pipeline includes all of CRISPR Therapeutics AG's active interventional trials, not only those targeting rare diseases. We show the full pipeline because a company's broader research activity, therapeutic expertise, and development infrastructure directly shape its ability to advance rare disease programs. A strong overall pipeline often signals deeper clinical operations, faster enrollment capabilities, and greater commitment to bringing new treatments to patients.

CRISPR Therapeutics AG Clinical Trials (5)

Active and recruiting clinical trials sponsored by CRISPR Therapeutics AG, sourced live from ClinicalTrials.gov. Each trial card shows the study phase, current recruitment status, conditions under investigation, study locations, eligibility criteria, and a direct link to the full ClinicalTrials.gov record. You can also download a one-page PDF summary to share with your doctor.

Note: Recruitment statuses on ClinicalTrials.gov may not immediately reflect recent FDA decisions, sponsor announcements, or enrollment changes. Always confirm a trial's current status directly with the study coordinator.
