Clinical Trial Summary

Gene transfer for ADA-SCID using an improved lentiviral vector (TYF-ADA)


Description:

This clinical trial will evaluate a safety and efficiency improved lentiviral vector system for delivering a therapeutic gene to patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) due to a defective adenosine deaminase (ADA) gene. This gene encodes for the adenosine deaminase enzyme, which is essential for the proper growth and function of infection-fighting white blood cells called T and B lymphocytes. Patients who lack this enzyme are vulnerable to frequent and severe infections.

ADA-SCID patients are normally rescued by a bone marrow transplant (BMT) from a matched healthy donor. However, matched donors are difficult to find and donor BMT is associated with high risk. This trial aims to treat ADA-SCID using a safety and efficiency improved self-inactivating lentiviral vector carrying a functional ADA gene to correct the genetic defect. By collecting an individual's stem cells and modifying them with a lentivirus, the gene-corrected cells can be returned to the patient to help produce normal healthy immune cells.The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety of the improved self-inactivating lentiviral vector TYF-ADA, the ex vivo gene transfer clinical protocol and the efficacy of immune reconstitution in patients overcoming frequent infections present at the time of treatment. We will assess the lentiviral gene integration sites and the long-term effect of this gene transfer procedure.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Overall survival up to a year Patient will be monitored for overall health condition, including immune cell assessments, blood biochemistry and metabolitic activities, metabolic detoxification, gene-modified cell percentage and vector copy number (VCN) in the blood, and continued follow-up for 15 years. 15 years
