A Phase I/II, Non Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label Study of G1XCGD (Lentiviral Vector Transduced CD34+ Cells) in Patients With X-Linked Chronic Granulomatous Disease

X-linked Chronic Granulomatous Disease (X-CGD) is a rare immune disorder that prevents white blood cells from killing foreign invaders. This results in severe, recurrent infections that can impact quality and length of a patient’s life. X-CGD is usually diagnosed before age 5, but without treatment, children die before age 10. A team at UCLA is using the patient’s own genetically […]

A Phase I/II, Non Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label Study of G1XCGD (Lentiviral Vector Transduced CD34+ Cells) in Patients With X-Linked Chronic Granulomatous Disease

Therapeutic Candidate or Device The therapeutic product candidate is autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) transduced with the G1XCGD lentiviral vector. Indication The target indication is for the transplantation of patients with severe X-linked Chronic Granulomatous Disease (XCGD) lacking matched donors. Therapeutic Mechanism Transplantation and engraftment of gene-corrected autologous HSPC after reduced intensity conditioning for […]

Hematopoietic Stem Cell Gene Therapy for XCGD

Therapeutic Candidate or Device Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells collected from X-CGD patients modified with a highly regulated lentiviral vector Indication X-linked Chronic Granulomatous Disease Therapeutic Mechanism Lentiviral vector (LV) modification of autologous hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to restore physiologic gp91phox expression. We have developed a next-generation LV designed by bioinformatic-guided screening of […]
