Although the results were acclaimed as the first "success of gene editing and cell function" [164] in cancer research and "an important milestone in the development and clinical application of gene-edited effector cell therapy," [168] it was far from curing the diseases. One died after the clinical trial, and the other two had recurrent cancer.

The embryos' genomes were edited to remove the CCR5 gene in an attempt to confer genetic resistance to HIV. [23] The clinical project was conducted secretly until 25 November 2018, when MIT Technology Review broke the story of the human experiment based on information from the Chinese clinical trials registry.
Bipartisan bills introduced in Congress Thursday would effectively ban a Chinese genomics firm from doing business in America. Intel officials have warned China is grabbing U.S. genetic info.
A designer baby is a baby whose genetic makeup has been selected or altered, often to exclude a particular gene or to remove genes associated with disease. [1] [2] This process usually involves analysing a wide range of human embryos to identify genes associated with particular diseases and characteristics, and selecting embryos that have the desired genetic makeup; a process known as ...
