We remain on track to report top-line, interim safety and efficacy data from Cohorts 1 and 2 in early December. Our pipeline of AAV gene therapy programs continued to advance during the quarter, and we have expanded our portfolio of novel AAV capsids through a recent licensing agreement with the California Institute of Technology for capsids which have demonstrated in preclinical models markedly enhanced blood-brain barrier penetration for the potential treatment of CNS diseases."
