This is a Phase I/II gene therapy trial treating X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1) using a self-inactivating lentiviral vector (ivlv-X1) to functionally correct the genetic defect. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the direct intravenous lentiviral gene transfer protocol.
X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1) is a genetic disorder caused by defect in the common cytokine receptor chain, normally on the surface of lymphocytes. Individuals with SCID-X1 lack the normal development of a functional immune system and so have difficulty fighting infections, which may lead to chronic or severe illness and death. X-SCID patients are normally rescued by a bone marrow transplant from a healthy donor. This trial aims to treat SCID-X1 using a self-inactivating lentiviral vector (LV) carrying a functional gene to correct the genetic defect. By direct intravenous (iv) injection of the LV (ivlv-X1) to modify immune cells in the body, this treatment may establish normal healthy immune cells and overcome the immunodeficiency. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety of the self-inactivating ivlv-X1-LV, the in vivo gene transfer protocol and the efficacy of immune reconstitution in patients overcoming frequent infections present at the time of treatment, assessment of iv LV gene transfer efficiency, and finally the long-term correction of immunodeficiency.
