TIME100 Most Influential Companies 2025: Vertex Pharmaceuticals
Boston and London biotech company Vertex Pharmaceuticals is on a roll. In the past year and a half, Vertex worked with CRISPR Therapeutics to develop the first CRISPR treatment approved by the U.S. FDA, called Casgevy, which treats sickle-cell disease and beta thalassemia; received approval for its fifth cystic fibrosis treatment, and in January, also earned FDA approval for the first non-opioid pain killer, Journavx, in more than two decades. CEO Dr. Reshma Kewalramani is a triple threat, combining medical, research, and business experience to lead the 36-year-old company. She has continued the drug development pathway on which the company was founded: rational drug design, meaning designing drugs to address a known biological process, rather than spending time with the traditional trial and error practice of combining and testing chemicals in the hope of landing on one that has the desired effect. When faced with the myriad diseases and equally numerous targets for potential drugs the company could pursue, Kewalramani leans on a specific formula: Vertex concentrates on diseases where there aren't many treatment options, or high unmet need; they look for genetic or drug targets that animal models show can make a difference in the disease; the disease needs to have so-called biomarkers, or ways that researchers can track changes produced by the treatment; and the therapy developed should have a clear pathway for getting approval from regulatory agencies like the FDA. The approach has served the company well. Its market capitalization is around $114 billion, and total revenues were up 12% from the previous year. Treating pain in a way that avoided the addictive side effect of opioids checked all of these boxes, although it took two decades to identify the right pathway to target. 'Why did we do this? Because we thought pain was an incredibly important disease where there was no innovation and where we thought we could make a big difference,' says Kewalramani. 'And why did we keep going? Because of the science and our desire to work in areas where we could make this kind of transformative leap.' Following the launch of Casgevy, which allows people with sickle cell disease to receive a single CRISPR gene therapy to address the genetic mutation responsible for their disease, Vertex is continuing to pursue what Kewalramani calls 'one and done curative medicines.' They are in the late stages of testing a cell-based treatment for type 1 diabetes that could potentially help people skip regular insulin injections by giving them healthy insulin-making pancreatic beta cells. The company is also developing new treatments for chronic kidney disease, for which there have not been new options in almost a decade, and in 2024, Vertex bought Alpine Immune Sciences for $4.9 billion to accelerate its search for novel kidney treatments. 'We are simply not interested in making me-too medicines,' says Kewalramani.

Scientists Edited Sperm to Bypass an Egg. The Result? A Mouse With Two Dads.
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Here's what you'll learn when you read this story: The first mice to be created from two fathers, a phenomenon known as androgenesis, have now produced healthy offspring for the first time. Researchers implanted two sperm in an egg with its nucleus removed and modified the sperm with epigenome editing, turning certain genes on and off. This process carries a high risk, but it could be used for human reproduction and saving endangered species in the future. Millions of years of evolution have determined how mammals reproduce, but if something doesn't occur in nature, it is not necessarily impossible. It could still be achieved in a lab. Mammalian reproduction usually needs one sperm and one oocyte (egg) to create a zygote that develops in the womb until it becomes a new organism. Embryogenesis and fetal development in mice and humans are similar, which is why mice are often used as prototypes for human experiments. Also like humans, mice, at least on their own, cannot create a viable zygote out of two eggs or two sperm. That is where genetic intervention comes in. Earlier this year, researcher Yanchang Wei at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China succeeded at creating mouse embryos from two sperm cells that were implanted into an egg after its nucleus had been removed. Giving the embryo a chance at survival meant making alterations to seven sites in the sperm DNA. The embryos grew inside surrogate mothers, but only two of over two hundred made it to adulthood. Those two mice have now reproduced successfully, showing that it is possible for at least one kind of mammal with two biological fathers to have healthy offspring of its own. 'Mammals are diploid creatures,' Wei said in a study recently published in PNAS. 'Every cell in their body contains two sets of chromosomes, one from the mother and one from the father. Mouse embryos with only paternal genomes can not develop to term, even being diploid (with two sets of chromosomes).' Behind what appears to be a miracle is a method known as epigenome editing. Because the epigenome is made up of chemical compounds that give the genome directions by modifying it, the process involves editing proteins, DNA and RNA at specific locations in the genome. There is no actual change to the genome made in epigenome editing, just a shift in which genes receive chemical signals to activate or inactivate them. There are some genes in sperm and eggs that are automatically switched on or off. Wei and his team used modified CRISPR proteins to turn on genes in the sperm cells that eggs would have normally had turned on. Androgenesis is rare among animals. While its does occur among some species of invertebrates, amphibians and fish. This phenomenon can happen when females produce eggs without a nucleus, which are then fertilized by males. The embryos will only inherit the genes of their father. In another type of androgenesis, both a sperm and egg form a zygote, but the genome of the female is eliminated. Males essentially use the eggs to clone themselves. It is thought that (with the exception of hermaphroditic organisms such as clams) androgenesis did not evolve much because the population would be dominated by male genes to the point of extinction. Creating mice from two mothers is easier in comparison. Known as parthenogenesis or 'virgin birth,' this phenomenon has been seen in reptiles, amphibians, insects, fish and even California condors. In 2004, a Japanese research team succeeded in genetically modifying and birthing the first fertile parthenogenic mouse, Kaguya. Whether genetically modified androgenesis or parthenogenesis will succeed in humans remains to be seen. The high risk is currently prohibitive. In the future, it might be a viable option, and could also be used to save critically endangered species which may only have a few individuals of one sex remaining. Never say 'impossible.'
