Recruiting NA Adenosine DeAminase Severe Combined ImmunoDeficiency (ADA-SCID)

New treatment option for Adenosine DeAminase Severe Combined ImmunoDeficiency (ADA-SCID)

Official title Gene Therapy for ADA-SCID Using an Improved Lentiviral Vector (Ivlv-ADA)

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03645460

What this study is testing

What is Direct intravenous injection of ivlv-ADA lentiviral vector?

Direct intravenous injection of ivlv-ADA lentiviral vector is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for adenosine deaminase severe combined immunodeficiency (ada-scid).

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 trial of in vivo lentiviral gene therapy for treating adenosine deaminase severe combined immunodeficiency (ADA-SCID) using a self-inactivating lentiviral vector (LV) ivlv-ADA to functionally correct the genetic defect. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the direct intravenous (iv) LV gene therapy protocol.
