Beam Therapeutics reported initial Phase 1/2 data for BEAM-301 in glycogen storage disease type Ia, showing proof of concept for genetic correction of the R83C mutation via a single infusion. In the 40 mg cohort, two of three patients achieved 15 hours of controlled fasting, improved glucose control, and no longer required daily starch supplementation; median time to fasting hypoglycemia rose from 2.5 to 15.0 hours at Day 36. Safety was consistent with LNP-based therapies, with no dose-limiting toxicities or Grade 4/5 events, though four of six patients had serious treatment-related TEAEs including three Grade 3 infusion-related reactions; premedication and infusion regimens were modified.
