Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc.'s shares closed up 6.74% on Friday with a little over 5 million shares traded. The stock hit a new 52-week high of $15.05. The stock has seen gains of over 33% last week despite any big news. The biotech company did announce that the first patient has received treatment in the phase 1/2 clinical trial of SB-525, which is Sangamo's gene therapy for patients with Hemophilia A. The big gains last week could be a result of other companies in the gene therapy arena flying higher. Recently Abeona received FDA "breakthrough therapy" designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for its EB-101 gene therapy program, for patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. Sangamo is developing gene therapies. Sangamo is focused on gene editing with four clinical programs in its pipeline and three pre-clinical programs.
