Adenovirus-Antibody Complexes Contributed to Lethal Systemic Inflammation in a Gene Therapy Trial
7 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
Intra-arterial administration of an adenovirus serotype 5 (Ad5) vector in a gene therapy trial caused lethal, systemic inflammation in subject 019 with ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency. This unanticipated inflammatory response was absent in another subject receiving the same vector dose and in 16 subjects receiving lower vector doses. We hypothesized that an immune memory to a previous natural adenovirus...
