Clinical Trial Summary

The primary purpose of the Phase I portion of the study is to determine the safety profile and preliminary evidence of efficacy associated with infusion of autologous gene-corrected hematopoietic stem cells.


Clinical Trial Description

The study is a pediatric non-randomized open-label Phase I clinical trial. This will include a safety evaluation and preliminary assessment of the efficacy of hematopoietic gene therapy consisting of autologous CD34+ enriched cells transduced with a lentiviral vector carrying the ITGB2 gene in subjects with severe Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency-I (LAD-I). Subjects will undergo mobilization and collection of peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and plerixafor or bone marrow harvest in select circumstances. HSCs will then be transduced with the therapeutic vector (Chim.hCD18-LV), with the intent of enabling stable integration of the provirus in the genome of stem and progenitor cells. If the number of CD34+ cells that are cryopreserved is at least 4×10E6 total CD34+ cells/kg, subjects will receive myeloablative conditioning with intravenous busulfan. The gene-modified CD34+ cells will be then transplanted back into the subject. Once engrafted, it is anticipated that the gene-modified stem and progenitor cells will enable hematopoiesis, generating blood cells in which the integrated therapeutic gene (ITGB2) will be transcribed and translated to produce the therapeutic CD18 protein with a preferential high expression in mature myeloid cells. Leukocytes expressing a functional CD18 will have the capability to arrest on endothelial surfaces and extravasate to infectious sites, enabling a competent antimicrobial response and reversing the clinical disorder. ;
