Abeona Therapeutics, Inc. (ABEO), a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and delivering gene therapy and plasma-based products for severe and life-threatening rare diseases, declared a license agreement with Stanford University for an AAV (adeno-associated virus) delivery vector for the treatment of Fanconi anemia (FA) and rare blood disease platform. This license augments a formerly declared license agreement with the University of Minnesota for ABO-301 (AAV-FANCC) to treat patients with Fanconi anemia (FA) disorder and other rare blood diseases.

The major function of bone marrow is to produce new blood cells. In FA, a DNA mutation renders the FANCC gene nonfunctional. Loss of FANCC causes patient skeletal abnormalities and leads to bone marrow failure. Fanconi anemia patients also have much higher rates of hematological diseases, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or tumors of the head, neck, skin, gastrointestinal system, or genital tract. The likelihood of developing one of these cancers in people with Fanconi anemia is between 10 and 30 percent. Aside from bone marrow transplantation (BMT) there are no specific treatments known that can halt or reverse the symptoms of FA. Repairing fibroblast cells in FA patients with a functional FANCC gene is the focus of our AAV-based gene therapy approach.
