CRISPR Therapeutics AG
CRISPR Therapeutics AG works on 12 rare diseases tracked on Trial Friend, including Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency, Dermatomyositis, Hodgkin Lymphoma and 9 more, with 5 active clinical trials (3 recruiting).
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 with recurrent vaso-occlusive crises (December 2023) and transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia (January 2024). In July 2026 the FDA widened both approvals to patients aged 2 and older. The pipeline includes zugocabtagene geleucel (zugo-cel, formerly CTX112), a donor-derived CAR-T therapy in trials for B-cell cancers and for autoimmune diseases such as lupus, immune thrombocytopenia and warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia; CTX460 for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, in a Phase 1 trial; CTX310, which targets ANGPTL3 to lower blood fats, in Phase 1b; and CTX321, a lipoprotein(a) program not yet in human trials.
CRISPR Therapeutics AG Drug Pipeline
CRISPR Therapeutics AG has 5 active clinical trials across 3 development stages, with 3 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 counts the active and recruiting trials listed on this page, from ClinicalTrials.gov. For companies that work outside rare disease, we list only trials for rare diseases we track, so the company's full pipeline may be larger.
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.
