Popis: | Ten patients with adenosine deaminase deficiency (ADA−) have been enrolled in gene therapy clinical trials since the first patient was treated in September 1990. We describe a Japanese ADA− severe combined immune deficiency (SCID) patient who has received periodic infusions of genetically modified autologous T lymphocytes transduced with the human ADA cDNA containing retroviral vector LASN. The percentage of peripheral blood lymphocytes carrying the transduced ADA gene has remained stable at 10% to 20% during the 12 months since the fourth infusion. ADA enzyme activity in the patient's circulating T cells, which was only marginally detected before gene transfer, increased to levels comparable to those of a heterozygous carrier individual and was associated with increased T-lymphocyte counts and improvement of the patient's immune function. The results obtained in this trial are in agreement with previously published observations and support the usefulness of T lymphocyte-directed gene transfer in the treatment of ADA−SCID. |
