Hemophilia gene therapy comes of age

Abstract

Concurrent with the development of recombinant factor replacement products, the characterization of the F9 and F8 genes over 3 decades ago allowed for the development of recombinant factor products and made the hemophilias a target disease for gene transfer. The progress of hemophilia gene therapy has been announced in 3 American Society of Hematology scientific plenary sessions, including the first “cure” in a large animal model of hemophilia B in 1998, first in human sustained vector-derived factor IX activity in 2011, and our clinical trial results reporting sustained vector-derived factor IX activity well into the mild or normal range in 2016. This progression to clinically meaningful success combined with numerous ongoing recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV)–mediated hemophilia gene transfer clinical trials suggest that the goal of gene therapy to alter the paradigm of hemophilia care may soon be realized. Although several novel therapeutics have recently emerged for hemophilia, gene therapy is unique in its potential for a one-time disease-altering, or even curative, treatment. This review will focus on the prior progress and current clinical trial investigation of rAAV-mediated gene transfer for hemophilia A and B.

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.
