The Vision of CureCN
The overall vision of the European research project CureCN is to provide a curative gene therapy for the ultra-rare Crigler-Najjar syndrome (CN). CN is a life-threatening, so far incurable liver disease that affects about one in a million individuals at birth.
The CureCN consortium joins forces to prove the safety and efficacy of the gene therapy in a clinical trial and to make the treatment available to patients. The project is funded by the European Framework Programme for Research and Innovation Horizon 2020 with a total budget of € 6.25 million.
Partners
The CureCN consortium brings together 11 European partners from academia, hospitals, healthcare companies and patient organisations to fight the so far incurable liver disease Crigler-Najjar (CN). Together, they aim to validate a gene therapy within a clinical trial to provide the first curative treatment against CN.
