Inadvertent Germline Transmission of AAV2 Vector: Findings in a Rabbit Model Correlate with Those in a Human Clinical Trial
5 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
The risk of germline transmission of vector sequences in humans is a major safety concern, because the enrollment of subjects of reproductive age in early-phase clinical trials of gene transfer continues to increase. In a study of adult men with hemophilia B, adeno-associated virus serotype 2 (AAV2) delivered to the liver via the hepatic artery resulted in unexpected transient vector dissemination to the semen....
