SOLVE FSHD and Modalis Announce Strategic Collaboration to Develop an Innovative CRISPR-Based Epigenome Editing Treatment for Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy
VANCOUVER, British Columbia & TOKYO & WALTHAM, Mass., June 08, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SOLVE FSHD, a venture philanthropy organization dedicated to accelerating treatments for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), and Modalis Therapeutics Corporation (TSE 4883; "Modalis"), a CRISPR-based epigenome editing therapeutics company focused on rare genetic diseases, today announced a strategic collaboration to develop an innovative therapy for FSHD, a debilitating muscular disorder affecting approximately 1 million individuals worldwide. The novel therapy leverages Modalis's proprietary CRISPR-GNDM® (Guide Nucleotide-Directed Modulation) technology, which can dynamically modulate gene expression without introducing double-strand DNA breaks. SOLVE FSHD will provide strategic funding to support the development of Modalis's MDL-103 program. MDL-103 is an innovative therapeutic solution that continuously suppresses the expression of the DUX4 gene, the toxic disease-causing gene for FSHD, which becomes abnormally activated due to epigenetic changes in the D4Z4 repeat region on chromosome 4. MDL-103 is designed to have durable activity over long periods of time under the control of a strong, muscle-specific promoter, and is delivered to the muscles of patients using a muscle-tropic AAV delivery system. Modalis's CRISPR-GNDM® technology has the potential to transform the treatment of FSHD by epigenetically silencing the expression of DUX4. "SOLVE FSHD is pleased to partner with Modalis and to add them to our diverse portfolio of collaborators that are advancing potential therapies for FSHD," stated Eva Chin, Executive Director of SOLVE FSHD. "SOLVE FSHD identified Modalis as a company committed to finding a cure for this debilitating condition. We were impressed by their unique approach to targeting the epigenetic cause of FSHD, using a platform technology that has shown promise in other neuromuscular diseases. We believe that the support from SOLVE FSHD will allow Modalis to accelerate the advancement of MDL-103 into clinical trials." "We are delighted to be working in partnership with SOLVE FSHD and greatly appreciate the invaluable support for the development of MDL-103," said Haru Morita, CEO of Modalis. "This strategic collaboration is a strong validation of Modalis's CRISPR-GNDM® technology and our MDL-103 program. As a pioneer in this technology, we have demonstrated promising long-term drug efficacy in mouse models, shown durable target engagement and safety in non-human primates, and exhibited excellent biodistribution in neuromuscular disorders. We believe that MDL-103, which incorporates CRISPR-GNDM® technology with a muscle tropic AAV delivery system, has significant potential as a breakthrough treatment for FSHD." About SOLVE FSHD SOLVE FSHD is a venture philanthropic organization established to catalyze innovation and accelerate key research in finding a cure for FSHD. Established by renowned Canadian entrepreneur and philanthropist, Chip Wilson, the Wilson family has committed $100 million to kick-start funding into projects that support the organizations' mission to solve FSHD by 2027. The goal of SOLVE FSHD is to find a solution that can slow down or stop muscle degeneration, increase muscle regeneration and strength, and improve the quality of life for those living with FSHD, visit About Modalis Therapeutics Corporation Modalis was founded in 2016 and conducts research and development activities in Massachusetts, USA. Modalis is a pioneering leader in the field of epigenetic medicine. Modalis develops therapeutics for patients suffering from serious genetic disorders such as neuromuscular diseases, CNS diseases, and cardiomyopathies. Modalis's proprietary CRISPR-GNDM® technology is capable of specifically up or down modulating the expression of disease-relevant genes without introducing double-strand DNA breaks.

Got 'Clutter' In Your Backyard Or A Drained Pool? Insurance Companies Are Using Aerial Images To Decide If You'll Keep Your Coverage
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. California and Texas homeowners are finding out the hard way that what's visible from the sky could result in losing their home insurance. More insurance companies are using aerial images and footage from satellites and drones to decide whether to renew a policy, and it has nothing to do with wildfire zones. In California, KGO-TV reported in 2023 that long-time AAA customers are being dropped for reasons like backyard clutter, old roofs or even empty swimming pools. In one case, CJ Sveen of Oakley said AAA told him his policy wouldn't be renewed because of 'debris and hazards' in his yard. Don't Miss: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — Invest Where It Hurts — And Help Millions Heal: 'Apparently, they have some pictures and they noticed clutter,' Sveen told KGO-TV. 'I find that offensive. How dare you judge me because of my stuff!' Sveen said he had no chance to fix the issue. 'There was no chance to mitigate, clean up, do anything, it was just, you're fired.' Another homeowner, George Nadeau of San Rafael got dropped because AAA said his roof had 'exceeded its useful life.' But Nadeau says that wasn't true. 'I think obviously that their drone surveillance was bogus,' he told KGO-TV. 'We've lived in this house for 50 years and have maintained our roof in a very effective way.' He said he installed a new roof seven years ago and even spent $4,000 on an upgrade later on. He submitted invoices and photos to prove the roof had been replaced and upgraded. After his appeal, AAA reinstated his policy. Trending: Maximize saving for your retirement and cut down on taxes: . Marilyn Smith and her husband in Northern California were dropped for draining their pool to conserve water. They now use the empty pool as a hothouse to grow potted tomatoes and lettuce. 'I think I was in so much shock, I couldn't believe it,' she told KGO-TV. The AAA notice cited 'deferred maintenance' due to the empty pool. 'We decided well, we don't use it... that saves us on maintenance and then just the water,' she said. In a statement to KGO-TV, AAA parent company CSAA Insurance Group said it uses aerial imagery from satellites and fixed-wing aircraft to assess properties and determine whether they meet underwriting criteria. 'To continue offering industry-leading insurance coverage, we must periodically evaluate our exposure to risk,' the company said. , KUT in Austin, Texas, reported just last month that this drone surveillance policy continues. Tracy Gartenmann got an email from insurance company Travelers telling her she had two months to trim her trees or lose her coverage. Attached were two blurry photos taken from above her home. 'I thought it was a scam,' Gartenmann said. 'It wouldn't have crossed my mind that that would've been a mechanism or technique that a corporation could use.' Alaina Callahan, who lives outside Houston, was told she needed a new roof even though hers was just five years old and in good condition. She never got to see the photos. 'I had no recourse as a homeowner. None whatsoever,' she told KUT. Consumer advocacy group Texas Watch told KUT that the use of aerial images and AI removes the human touch and increases the risk of error. In one case, a homeowner lost coverage because the company used the wrong house image. KGO-TV reported that some homeowners have been able to find new coverage, often through insurers catering to military families. Others, like Nadeau in California, got reinstated after pushing back and sending documents about their roof being in good condition.
