New treatment option for SCID, X-Linked
Official title SCID-X1 Gene Therapy Via Intravenous Lentiviral (Ivlv-X1) Injection
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03217617
What this study is testing
What is Direct intravenous injection of ivlv-X1 lentiviral vector?
Direct intravenous injection of ivlv-X1 lentiviral vector is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for scid, x-linked.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- 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.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
