Evidence of Multiyear Factor IX Expression by AAV-Mediated Gene Transfer to Skeletal Muscle in an Individual with Severe Hemophilia B
7 Jul 2006
Abstract excerpt
In a phase I study, administration of an AAV2-FIX vector into the skeletal muscle of eight hemophilia B subjects proved safe and achieved local gene transfer and FIX expression for at least 10 months after vector injection, the last time point assessed by muscle biopsy. In hemophilia B dogs we have demonstrated FIX in both muscle biopsies and circulation >4 years following AAV2-FIX injection. Because circulating...
