Beneficial effects on vision in patients undergoing retinal gene therapy for choroideremia
Open accessAbstract
Retinal gene therapy is increasingly recognized as a novel molecular intervention that has huge potential in treating common causes of blindness, the majority of which have a genetic aetiology1–5. Choroideremia is a chronic X-linked retinal degeneration that was first described in 18726. It leads to progressive blindness due to deficiency of Rab-escort protein 1 (REP1). We designed an adeno-associated viral vector to express REP1 and assessed it in a gene therapy clinical trial by subretinal injection in 14 patients with choroideremia. The primary endpoint was vision change in treated eyes 2 years after surgery compared to unoperated fellow eyes. Despite complications in two patients, visual acuity improved in the 14 treated eyes over controls (median 4.5 letter gain, versus 1.5 letter loss, P = 0.04), with 6 treated eyes gaining more than one line of vision (>5 letters). The results suggest that retinal gene therapy can sustain and improve visual acuity in a cohort of predominantly late-stage choroideremia patients in whom rapid visual acuity loss would ordinarily be predicted. The long-term follow-up results of a phase 1/2 retinal gene therapy clinical trial for choroideremia (NCT01461213) support the safety and efficacy of the treatment.

Ocular AAV treatments have caused permanent visual acuity loss after intraocular inflammation.
“ocular AAV therapies leading to a permanent reduction in visual acuity following intraocular inflammation (9–11)”
From Engineering adeno-associated viral vectors to evade innate immune and inflammatory responses (2021) · cites this paper as [11]
The Results report significant retinal inflammation in patient C2 two weeks after AAV treatment, and Online Methods describe it as visually significant vitritis and retinitis. Neither passage establishes a permanent reduction in visual acuity. The Discussion also says the inflammation might have been related to the injection surgery, so its cause is uncertain. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredClinical trials have reported AAV dose-dependent intraocular inflammation and persistent visual acuity loss after subretinal AAV despite prophylactic immunosuppression.
“AAV dose-dependent intraocular inflammation and a few instances of persistent loss of visual acuity have been independently reported in clinical trials following subretinal AAV administration despite prophylactic immunosuppression (9–11).”
From Engineering adeno-associated viral vectors to evade innate immune and inflammatory responses (2021) · cites this paper as [11]
The Online Methods report visually significant vitritis and retinitis in patient C2 despite prophylactic prednisolone. The Results identify C2 as a high-dose recipient, but neither the Results nor Discussion establishes a dose-dependent pattern of inflammation. They also do not report persistent visual-acuity loss; the Results instead report an overall improvement in treated eyes at two years. (LLM, conf=0.87)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredDose-dependent retinal inflammation (GTAU) has been observed in many retinal gene therapy trials, limiting vector dose and therapeutic efficacy.
“Despite the perceived low immunogenicity of AAV and relative immune privilege of the intraocular environment,8 dose-dependent retinal inflammation, or gene therapy-associated uveitis (GTAU), has been observed in many retinal gene therapy trials, which limits the vector dose and therapeutic efficacy.”
From Characterizing the cellular immune response to subretinal AAV gene therapy in the murine retina (2021) · cites this paper as [6]
The Results report significant retinal inflammation in one patient (C2), described as most likely vector-related; the Discussion adds that it might instead have resulted from surgical vector reflux. The paper does not establish a dose-dependent pattern across many trials or say that inflammation limited vector dose or therapeutic efficacy. Its Online Methods describe an extended steroid regimen after C2’s inflammation, not a dose reduction. (LLM, conf=0.88)

“In the phase 1/2 dose-escalation trials for RPE65-associated LCA, choroideremia, and retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator (RPGR)-associated X-linked retinitis pigmentosa, patients receiving higher doses of AAV have presented with various signs of retinal inflammation, including vitritis, retinitis, and choroiditis,2,6,7 implicating the presence of a cell-mediated immune response.”

Online Methods (Subretinal administration of AAV vector; page unavailable) describes oral prednisolone in this trial, extended after a patient developed retinal inflammation. The amended regimen continued through day 18 after treatment, not day 21. This single trial also does not establish that many retinal gene therapy trials use a standardized protocol or that the extension ameliorates immune responses in humans. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
