UniQure to restructure.

Read time: 1 mins
Published: 7th Oct 2023

Following an extensive review of the pipeline, UniQure will discontinue more than half of its research and technology projects, including AMT-210 for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease and multiple undisclosed programs.

The company will focus its research efforts on a limited number of projects believed to have optimal risk, value and speed attributes, including AMT-161 for c9orf72 amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), AMT-240 for autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease, and next-generation AAV capsid development. As a result of the reprioritization, the Company will be closing a research lab in Lexington and plans to sublease this space. The Company will also consolidate all GMP manufacturing into its Lexington, MA manufacturing facility and consolidate process and analytical development into its Amsterdam, Netherlands facility. Commercial manufacturing of Hemgenix for CSL Behring will be unaffected by these actions.
