Intellia Therapeutics Advances In Vivo CRISPR Therapy Lonvo-z to FDA After Positive Phase 3 HAELO Trial Results
Intellia Therapeutics' Phase 3 HAELO trial for lonvoguran ziclumeran (lonvo-z) met its primary endpoint, reducing HAE swelling attacks by 87% compared to placebo over six months in 80 patients.123
62% of lonvo-z patients were attack- and therapy-free during the six-month period, versus 11% on placebo; all key secondary endpoints met.123
The therapy showed a favorable safety profile with mild or moderate adverse events like infusion reactions, headache, and fatigue; no serious adverse events in the lonvo-z arm.123
Intellia initiated a rolling BLA submission to the FDA, aiming to complete it in the second half of 2026 for potential U.S. launch in H1 2027.123
HAELO marks the first positive Phase 3 results for an in vivo CRISPR-based gene editing therapy.234
