1/As promised & after reading $NTLA latest Q4 & full year 2023 financial report here is my impression regarding @intelliatx latest corporate status. As always I have focused only on the main issues that I found to be the most interesting & relevant. Here is my 🧵👇 $XBI #BioTech Intellia Therapeutics - a leading clinical-stage gene editing company focused on revolutionizing medicine with CRISPR-based therapies, today reported operational highlights and financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023.
2/IMO the most significant corporate event was @intelliatx collaboration signed with @ReCodeTx - which uses tissue-specific delivery to power mRNA & gene correction therapeutics to develop novel medicines for the treatment of Cystic fibrosis based on $NTLA Gene Editing platform In my opinion the most significant corporate event was intellia’s collaboration signed with ReCode therapeutics - which uses tissue-specific delivery to power mRNA and gene correction therapeutics to develop novel medicines for the treatment of Cystic fibrosis based on intellia’s platform
3/Another major development - which was recently presented in the @jpmorgan’s health conference, was @intelliatx’s restructured pipeline & its new 2024-2026 main Strategic Priorities:
1. Trials for its 2 in vivo #CRISPR platforms - $NTLA-2001 & 2002
2. POC for $NTLA new CRISPR-in vivo targeted gene insertion & allogeneic ex vivo program

@SparingVision @intelliatx 16/As of 12/31/23 $NTLA had capital resources of $1B & quarterly R&D expenses of $109M. IMO despite the high cash burn, @intelliatx’s current cash position of ~ $1B will enable it to continue in developing its pipeline & to initiate additional acquisitions and collaborations. As of 12/31/23 Intellia had capital resources of 1 billion dollars and quarterly research and development expenses of 109 million dollars. In my opinion despite the high cash burn, Intellia’s current cash position of approximately 1 billion dollars will enable it to continue in developing its pipeline and to initiate additional acquisitions and collaborations.
@SparingVision @intelliatx 17/@intelliatx remains very promising due to its broad collaboration agreements alongside a diverse pipeline. After receiving an IND clearance for $NTLA-2001 thus clearing the way to the US market & advancing $NTLA-2002 into Phase 3 - ‘24 is expected to be a strong year for $NTLA intellia remains very promising due to its broad collaboration agreements alongside a diverse pipeline.
