We make healthy cells invisible to targeted therapiesTargeted therapies work by attacking cells that express particular proteins on their surface. Unfortunately, both diseased and healthy cells often express the same proteins, resulting in collateral damage to healthy cells.At Vor, we engineer hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to lack a biologically redundant target protein, then transplant these cells into the patient.These eHSCs give rise to generations of new healthy blood cells that are effectively invisible to targeted therapies. Diseased cells displaying the target protein and are then vulnerable to attack. This process potentially broadens the therapeutic window and improves the utility of complementary targeted therapies.Please visit our website at https://www.vorbio.com/ for more information.As an equal opportunity employer, we at Vor Biopharma know that diversity inspires innovation, inclusiveness, and creativity.
