Groundbreaking gene therapy aims to fix immune system in rare disease

NCT ID NCT06559176

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial tests a new gene therapy (PM359) for people with a rare immune disorder called chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). The treatment takes a patient's own blood stem cells, fixes a specific genetic error using a precise editing tool called prime editing, and returns the corrected cells to the patient. The goal is to restore the immune system's ability to fight infections, but ongoing monitoring is needed. The study enrolls 12 participants and follows them for 15 years.
