From Diagnosis to Gene Editing in Just Six Months: A Revolutionary Leap in Personalized Medicine

In a landmark medical breakthrough, researchers in Philadelphia have successfully treated a six-month-old infant named KJ using a custom-designed CRISPR gene-editing therapy. The treatment was tailored specifically to correct a rare, life-threatening genetic mutation affecting his liver function—an achievement that not only saved KJ’s life but also established a new gold standard for how rapidly personalized therapies can be developed and delivered.
