Lentiviral Gene Therapy for Cerebral Adrenoleukodystrophy
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: complementary DNA, is being tested in persons with cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy. METHODS: In a phase 2-3 study, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of eli-cel therapy in boys with early-stage cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy and evidence of active inflammation on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The primary efficacy end point was survival without any of six major functional disabilities at month 24. The secondary end points included overall survival at month 24 and the change from baseline to month 24 in the total neurologic function score. RESULTS: A total of 32 patients received eli-cel; 29 patients (91%) completed the 24-month study and are being monitored in the long-term follow-up study. At month 24, none of these 29 patients had major functional disabilities; overall survival was 94%. At the most recent assessment (median follow-up, 6 years), the neurologic function score was stable as compared with the baseline score in 30 of 32 patients (94%); 26 patients (81%) had no major functional disabilities. Four patients had adverse events that were directly related to eli-cel. Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with excess blasts developed in 1 patient at month 92; the patient underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation and did not have MDS at the most recent follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: At a median follow-up of 6 years after lentiviral gene therapy, most patients with early cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy and MRI abnormalities had no major functional disabilities. However, insertional oncogenesis is an ongoing risk associated with the integration of viral vectors.

Overview
CoChat Summary
Written by AI from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
In boys with early-stage cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy and active MRI inflammation, elivaldogene autotemcel (eli-cel) lentiviral gene therapy preserved neurologic function and disability-free survival over a median follow-up of 6 years. However, insertional oncogenesis remains a risk, with one patient developing myelodysplastic syndrome at month 92.
Key findings
- At month 24, 29 of 32 patients (91%; 95% CI, 75 to 98) had no major functional disabilities, and overall survival was 94%.
- At the most recent assessment (median follow-up, 6 years), the neurologic function score was stable in 30 of 32 patients (94%), and 26 of 32 patients (81%) had no major functional disabilities.
- Four of 32 patients (12%) had adverse events directly related to eli-cel; no graft-versus-host disease was observed.
- MDS with excess blasts developed in 1 patient at month 92 and was considered related to Lenti-D lentiviral vector; the patient underwent allogeneic HSCT and had no MDS at most recent follow-up.
Methods
- Phase 2–3, multicenter, open-label study of eli-cel in boys 17 years of age or younger with cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy confirmed by biochemical and genetic testing, early-stage cerebral disease with gadolinium enhancement on MRI, a neurologic function score of 0 or 1, and a Loes score of 0.5 to 9.
- A total of 32 patients received eli-cel; the primary efficacy end point was survival without any of six major functional disabilities at month 24, with secondary end points including overall survival and change in total neurologic function score.
- Statistical methods were primarily descriptive; the sample size was not determined by formal statistical methods, and confidence intervals were not adjusted for multiplicity.
Limitations
- The paper states that a limitation is the small number of patients included who had a high baseline Loes score, and that additional longer-term follow-up, including neuropsychiatric testing outcomes, is needed.
- Evident from the text: this was a single-arm, open-label study without a concurrent comparator, and the authors note that comparative inferences cannot be drawn from historical allogeneic HSCT data.
- Evident from the text: insertional oncogenesis is an ongoing risk, and longer-term follow-up is needed to determine whether efficacy is maintained.

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.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-12, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-12 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
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.
