For the first time ever, doctors have successfully cured a genetic disease by editing DNA directly inside a patient’s body. Using CRISPR gene-editing technology, a life-threatening mutation in a young girl with Friedreich’s ataxia was corrected by delivering molecular tools straight into her bloodstream—without the need for surgery.
This revolutionary approach resulted in stabilized symptoms within weeks, marking a groundbreaking leap in genomic medicine. If replicated across other conditions, this technique could pave the way for curing diseases once thought to be lifelong or fatal—by simply rewriting the genetic code from within.
