The company is developing both ex vivo and in vivo therapies. Its pipeline has included programs for sickle cell disease, beta thalassemia, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, glycogen storage disease type Ia and certain cancers. Beam’s work combines base-editing systems with delivery technologies intended to transport editors to specific cells or tissues. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Beam was co-founded by scientists including David R. Liu and J. Keith Joung. The company conducts research and clinical development aimed at serving patients internationally and has entered collaborations and partnerships to advance its gene-editing platform and therapeutic programs.AI Generated.
