Development of a Clinical Candidate AAV3 Vector for Gene Therapy of Hemophilia B.

Abstract:

:Although recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 8 (AAV8) and serotype 5 (AAV5) vectors have shown efficacy in Phase 1 clinical trials for gene therapy of hemophilia B, it has become increasingly clear that these serotypes are not optimal for transducing primary human hepatocytes. We have previously reported that among the 10 most commonly used AAV serotypes, AAV serotype 3 (AAV3) vectors are the most efficient in transducing primary human hepatocytes in vitro as well as in "humanized" mice in vivo, and suggested that AAV3 vectors expressing human coagulation factor IX (hFIX) may be a more efficient alternative for clinical gene therapy of hemophilia B. In the present study, we extended these findings to develop an AAV3 vector incorporating a compact yet powerful liver-directed promoter as well as optimized hFIX cDNA sequence inserted between two AAV3 inverted terminal repeats. When packaged into an AAV3 capsid, this vector yields therapeutic levels of hFIX in hemophilia B and in "humanized" mice in vivo. Together, these studies have resulted in an AAV3 vector predicted to achieve clinical efficacy at reduced vector doses, without the need for immune-suppression, for clinical gene therapy of hemophilia B.
