This study is a post approval commitment to evaluate the accuracy and precision of retroviral insertion site (RIS) analysis and its utility for investigating and predicting the potential for insertional oncogenesis in subjects treated with Strimvelis.
This non-interventional, retrospective, methodology study will use peripheral blood and bone marrow samples previously taken from subjects treated with Strimvelis. The study does not require subjects to undergo any further treatment, intervention or blood withdrawal. The objective of this methodology study is to evaluate the accuracy and precision of shearing extension primer tag selection ligation-mediated polymerase chain reaction (S-EPTS/LM-PCR) for RIS analysis and its utility for investigating and predicting the potential for insertional oncogenesis in subjects previously treated with Strimvelis for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) due to adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
15
This non-interventional, retrospective, methodology study will use peripheral blood and bone marrow samples previously taken from subjects treated with gRV-GT. The study does not require subjects to undergo any further treatment, intervention or blood withdrawal. Eligible samples will be shipped to a central laboratory and will undergo DNA extraction prior to S-EPTS/LM-PCR analysis. Each analysis run will include a control DNA sample and up to four subject samples. Each sample will be analysed in triplicate.

To assess the precision of S-EPTS/LM-PCR methodology for RIS analysis using control insertion site DNA
Precision will be determined by the variability (%CV) of the abundance data.
Time frame: Retrospective sample analysis.
To assess the accuracy of S-EPTS/LM-PCR methodology for RIS using control insertion site DNA
Accuracy will be determined based on the difference between the mean retrieved abundance and the expected abundance of control DNA.
Time frame: Retrospective sample analysis.
