We have successfully demonstrated a

for our gene therapy approach targeting cystic fibrosis.
In initial experiments, HEK cells carrying a 3-base deletion analogous to the F508del mutation were transfected
with our prime editing complex. The results met our expectations, confirming the viability of our approach for
precise gene correction. Based on these findings, we optimized the prime editing complex, leading to the creation
of PrimeGuide, a more compact and efficient editing tool.

</

, a lung-specific lipid nanoparticle designed to stabilize and protect
the prime editing complex during transport to lung ionocytes. AirBuddy ensures that the protein complex is
delivered specifically to lung cells, enhancing the efficiency of the gene-editing process. By modifying the
lipid nanoparticle with protective features, we achieved increased stability, ensuring effective delivery to the
target cells.

We further optimized the fusion protein,

PrimeGuide

, to streamline its components, resulting in a smaller and
more efficient prime editing complex. This improvement significantly enhances the precision of the gene editing
process, reducing off-target effects and increasing the overall success of mutation correction.

In subsequent experiments, HEK cells carrying the CFTR F508del mutation were successfully transfected with the
optimized prime editing complex. Our results indicated successful correction of the mutation, confirming the
potential of our approach for treating cystic fibrosis.

Additionally, we explored downstream applications. Primary cell cultures were treated with lipid nanoparticles to
introduce a reporter RNA. We also established 2D cultures transfected with YFP, a sodium-sensitive reporter protein,
to assess ion channel functionality. Finally, in CFTR-deficient organoids, our system facilitated repair of the CFTR
channel, evidenced by an increase in organoid volume upon treatment. This suggests successful functional restoration
of CFTR activity.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a severe genetic disorder caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, most commonly the F508del
mutation. This mutation leads to defective ion channels in lung cells, causing mucus buildup, chronic lung infections,
and progressive respiratory failure. Current therapies primarily target symptoms, but a definitive cure remains elusive.
To address this, we aim to develop a targeted gene therapy utilizing prime editing technology. This approach focuses
on correcting the CFTR F508del mutation with precision and efficiency. Our innovative system integrates a
next-generation prime editing complex (PrimeGuide) with a lung-specific delivery platform (AirBuddy) to achieve
targeted and stable delivery to lung ionocytes.

Our initial proof of concept successfully demonstrated the functionality of the prime editing complex in HEK cells
carrying a 3-base deletion analogous to the F508del mutation. Building on these promising results, we optimized the
prime editing complex, creating PrimeGuide, a smaller and more effective editing tool. Additionally, we developed
AirBuddy, a lung-specific lipid nanoparticle system designed to protect and transport the prime editing complex
directly to lung cells.

This project not only focuses on mutation correction but also validates the gene therapy’s functional restoration
in relevant cell models, including primary cultures and organoids. By exploring downstream applications, we aim to
offer a promising therapeutic option for cystic fibrosis, potentially paving the way for similar approaches in
personalized medicine.
