CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Feb. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intellia Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: NTLA), a leading biopharmaceutical company focused on revolutionizing medicine leveraging CRISPR gene editing and other core technologies, today reported business updates and financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025.
“2025 was a time of accomplishment and resiliency for Intellia as we presented encouraging longer term Phase 1/2 clinical data for both lonvo-z and nex-z, rapidly enrolled patients in our three Phase 3 trials, commenced activities to prepare for a potential lonvo-z launch in HAE and responded to the clinical holds on our nex-z Phase 3 trials late in the year,” said Intellia President and Chief Executive Officer John Leonard, M.D. “We expect the year ahead to be a pivotal one, highlighted by our topline Phase 3 data and planned BLA submission for lonvo-z, which has the potential to transform the HAE treatment paradigm by freeing most patients from both their attacks and chronic therapy. Additionally, we are focused on resuming our forward momentum with nex-z by completing patient enrollment in MAGNITUDE-2 and resolving the clinical hold on MAGNITUDE.”
Lonvoguran Ziclumeran (Lonvo-z) for Hereditary Angioedema (HAE)
Lonvo-z is a wholly owned, investigational in vivo CRISPR-based therapeutic candidate designed to inactivate the KLKB1 gene in the liver, drive consistent, deep and potentially lifelong reduction in kallikrein levels, and dramatically reduce or eliminate HAE attacks via a one-time treatment.
Nexiguran Ziclumeran (Nex-z) for Transthyretin (ATTR) Amyloidosis
Nex-z is an investigational in vivo CRISPR-based therapeutic candidate designed to inactivate the TTR gene in the liver, thereby preventing the production of transthyretin (TTR) protein. Nex-z offers the possibility of halting and reversing disease by driving a deep, consistent and potentially lifelong reduction in TTR protein after a one-time treatment. Intellia leads the development and commercialization of nex-z in collaboration with Regeneron Pharmaceuticals , Inc.
