Congratulations to #TBCPartner @AtalantaTx who just announced an oversubscribed Series B financing of $97 million! The funding will support the advancement of Atalanta's RNAi medicines for CNS diseases, including clinical development for its investigational therapies targeting KCNT1-related epilepsy and Huntington’s disease. Named after the Greek heroine Atalanta, the company was founded to promote RNA interference that could silence disease-causing genes. This Nobel prize-winning science offers an opportunity to regulate genes and stop disease at its source. We can't wait to see what the future holds for this motivated team.
Atalanta Therapeutics is building on the growing attention around RNAi-based medicines with its $97 million Series B financing and plans to enter the clinic.

#TBCPartner @intelliatx presented the first disease progression data from its Phase 1 trial of nex-z in transthyretin amyloidosis, an underappreciated cause of heart failure in elderly patients, during a special scientific session in Chicago this weekend to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the American Heart Association (@American_Heart). The data showed that nex-z has real potential to halt or even reverse the course of disease. With Phase 3 trials underway, we look forward to learning more about what Intellia’s revolutionary #CRISPR therapies can do for patients.
Intellia says its gene editing treatment for a heart muscle disease can stabilize or improve outcomes where other treatments have only been shown to slow the disease’s progression.

Last week, TBC’ers volunteered at @communityserv, a Boston-based nonprofit that prepares nutritious meals for individuals and families facing critical and chronic illnesses. Giving back to our community is core to our mission at Ten Bridge, and partnering with Community Servings is always an inspiring experience. We were proud to support their commitment to providing nutritious, home-delivered meals to those in need. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Last week #TBCPartner @intelliatx unveiled Phase 2 data from their trial of NTLA-2002 targeting hereditary angioedema (HAE), a rare disease that causes swelling attacks in various parts of the body. Data supported a functional cure for HAE - just one dose led to deep reduction of swelling attacks in patients. Excited to see this real patient impact from Intellia and all that is to come for their #CRISPR medicines!
#CRISPR therapy cuts hereditary angioedema swelling attacks by 81% in @intelliatx's 16-week Phase 2 study. 8 of 11 patients on medium dose (being tested in Phase 3) have had zero attacks since the infusion. Read more in my story for @endpts:

Congratulations to David Baker for winning the Nobel Prize in Chemistry and, in the words of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, achieving the ���almost impossible feat of building entirely new kinds of proteins.” Engineering proteins with novel shapes and functions unlocks nearly endless possibilities to create more effective medicines, diagnostics, and sensors. At Ten Bridge, we’re thrilled to be working alongside a biotech co-founded by David, to help translate his science and create the next generation of computationally designed drugs.
Proteins generally consist of 20 different amino acids, which can be described as life’s building blocks. In 2003, David Baker succeeded in using these blocks to design a new protein that was unlike any other protein. Since then, his research group has produced one imaginative protein creation after another, including proteins that can be used as pharmaceuticals, vaccines, nanomaterials and tiny sensors. Earlier this week it was announced that Baker was awarded the 2024 chemistry prize for his work on computational protein design. Discover more about this year's chemistry prize: #NobelPrize

Last week, some members of our team volunteered with the @CharlesRiver Watershed Association to remove invasive water chestnuts from the Charles River here in Massachusetts. Water chestnuts are an invasive aquatic plant found in the Charles River. They are rosette shaped and fast growing, thus blocking out other life in the river. Thanks to the CRWAs efforts, they have removed over 100 tons of water chestnuts from the Charles. Our team helped remove another 106 baskets of water chestnuts. Well done team, and thank you to the CRWA for another amazing volunteer experience!
