July 01, 2021 Pharming turns to gene therapy for next-gen HAE therapy Lisa Urquhart Hereditary angioedema (HAE) has gone from an intractable, life-threatening, rare disease to a field with eight marketed drugs in just 13 years. If Pharming has its way one of the next additions could be a gene therapy. The Dutch group has inked a $17.5m up-front deal with Orchard Therapeutics for worldwide rights to OTL-105. OTL- 105 works by inserting one or more functional copies of the SERPING1 gene into patients' own hematopoietic stem cells ex vivo, enabling production of the C1-INH protein HAE patients lack. Pharming could well steal a march on market leader Takeda by investing in gene therapy now; the Japanese giant, whose Takhzyro is forecast to hit blockbuster status this year, does not appear to have a stake in any such technology in HAE. Nearer term-innovation in HAE includes Kalvista and Pharvaris's oral projects in both the acute and prophylactic space. Several groups are looking at longer-acting mechanisms, including CSL with its once monthly MAb, while in vivo gene editing and RNAi projects are in early stages elsewhere. Should these approaches succeed a less convenient gene therapy could well prove useful only for the most severe cases, but with much work still to be done that remains a debate for the future.

8 Legal Problems of Pharming
8Legal problems of pharming 8.1Introduction The regulatory framework of pharming is highly complex. As regards the sources of regulation, one must distinguish between European and national levels. The various phases of pharming, from the initial development to the authorization procedure to final manufacturing, are partly subject to dif- ferent legal rules. In addition, the various regulatory issues at the relevant stages are addressed by different pieces of regulation. The following text is organized so as to follow the “life cycle” of pharming products. When appropriate, the phases are further divided into segments according to the regulatory issues arising and the type of regulation concerned. The follow- ing overview provides an initial orientation. 8.2Development phase I: Protection from risks to the environment caused by the use and release of GMOs As regards risks to the environment caused by the use and release of GMOs in the development phase, the fundamental question concerns the neces- sary safety requirements in order to prevent harm to the environment from the relevant transgenic plants or animals. Alternative strict safety require- ments exist under the contained use regime established by the Directives 90/219 and 98/8 and the more liberal precautions under the release regime laid down by Directive 2001/18. 8.2.1Sources of legal regulation and their scope of application In this respect, two major EC directives1 may be relevant: – Directive 90/219 on the contained use of genetically modified microor- ganisms (contained use directive) as amended by Directive 98/81 (which has replaced almost entirely the former directive)2, – Directive 2001/18 on the deliberate release into the environment of ge- netically modified organisms (release directive).

The Creation of Scarcity
PESTICIDE POP KIRSTEN STOLLE FEBRUARY 15 – MARCH 20, 2020 NOMEGALLERY.COM Glogauer Str. 17 | 10999 Berlin | Germany “No witchcraft, no enemy action had silenced the rebirth of new life in this stricken world. The people had done it themselves.” Rachel Carson, Silent Spring In her 1962 book of environmentalism, Silent Spring, Rachel Carson warned readers about the dangers of the chemical industry and the widespread use of pesticides in agriculture. Kirsten Stolle’s art practice follows Carson’s lead in exposing the pervasive misinformation spread by biotechnology corporations from the post-war era to the present. Pesticide Pop continues the artist’s research into agrochemical giants like Monsanto — who published a parodic rebuttal of Silent Spring back in the ‘60s. Stolle’s tactics of redaction, glitch, and appropriation across different media retell the true, toxic narrative of such conglomerates, and trace the connections between corporate interests and public health. Audio files from US Department of Agriculture videos in the 1940s-50s are extracted and looped; abraded chemical company stock certificates are overlayered with Letraset symbols; recent deceptive ads placed in the NY Times are corrected or blocked out; and a Monsanto TV commercial is turned into a series of lightboxes whose phrases call out the company’s greenwashing. As viewers find words in an oversized word-search puzzle – military – ddt – lawsuits – transgenic – war – the environmental violence of the industry emerges. While Stolle employs humor – the titular series satirically reframes weed killer as Pop Art – her work hammers home the serious reality of the effect that long-lasting toxicity has on our bodies, ecosystems, and the environment.
