LEXINGTON, Mass., Oct. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- LogicBio Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq:LOGC), a clinical-stage genetic medicine company pioneering gene editing and gene delivery platforms to address rare and serious diseases from infancy through adulthood, today announced that it was selected to present new data from the company's GeneRide™ platform in a plenary oral presentation and three poster presentations at the upcoming European Society of Gene and Cell Therapy (ESGCT) Virtual Congress 2021, to be held from October 19-22, 2021.

The oral presentation will include new preclinical GeneRide data showing delivery of corrective genes in three different indications with intrinsic liver damage demonstrating strong evidence of selective advantage of the corrected hepatocytes. Poster presentations will highlight GeneRide expression data in preclinical models of tyrosinemia type 1, as well as the company's optimized adeno-associated virus (AAV) process development.

Oral Presentation Details:

Title: Nuclease-free, promoterless recombinant AAV-mediated genome editing restores function of hepatocytes leading to selective advantage and repopulation in mouse models with liver disease (OR40)
Presenter: Shengwen Zhang, Director, Pharmacology, LogicBio Therapeutics
Session: 5b: Gene Editing III
Session date/time: October 21, 2021, 17:00-17:15 p.m. CEST (11:00-11:15 a.m. ET)

Poster Presentations Details:

Title: A novel endonuclease-free genome editing technology to edit hepatocytes in vivo led to a full molecular liver transplant and cured mice in preclinical models of Tyrosinemia Type 1 (P253)
Q. Qiang Xiong, Director, Head of Preclinical Pharmacology, LogicBio Therapeutics

Title: Development of an Anion Exchange Chromatography Method to Assess Percent Full Capsids for Chimeric Capsid AAV-LK03 (P268)
William Lee, Research Associate, LogicBio Therapeutics

Title: Modified plasmid and transfection optimization in suspension HEK293 cells lead to scalable high-yield process for AAV manufacturing (P278)
Hans Reuter, Upstream Engineer, Process Development, LogicBio Therapeutics
