Unique risk factors for insertional mutagenesis in a mouse model of XSCID gene therapy
24 Jul 2006
Abstract excerpt
Although gene therapy can cure patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) syndromes, the clinical occurrence of T cell malignancies due to insertional mutagenesis has raised concerns about the safety of gene therapy. Several key questions have remained unanswered: (i) are there unique risk factors for X-linked SCID (XSCID) gene therapy that increase the risk of insertional mutagenesis; (ii) what other...
