Interesting, thanks for the info!
Another question: how does this approach compare to trying to repair the pathogenic variants in the cancer? I asked here about that approach recently and the response was mainly about delivery difficulties: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48285386
Even with 100% delivery efficacy, editing efficacy is nowhere near 100%. CRISPR/Cas editors will reliably detect the target sequence but will not reliably edit it in order to repair the mutant allele, whereas CRISPR/Cas12a2 will activate and destroy chromatin ~100% of the time when it detects the target.
As is often the case, it's a lot easier to indiscriminately destroy than precisely (re)build.
