New gene therapy offers hope for 'Bubble Boy' disease patients who failed transplants

NCT ID NCT01306019

Summary

This trial is testing a new gene therapy for patients aged 2 to 50 with X-linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (XSCID), a severe genetic immune disorder. The treatment aims to correct the faulty gene in a patient's own blood stem cells and infuse them back after mild chemotherapy. The goal is to restore immune function for patients who have not benefited enough from a previous half-matched bone marrow transplant and lack a perfectly matched donor.
