TL;DR: This study investigated the safety of subretinal delivery of a recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) carrying RPE65 complementary DNA (cDNA) and found three patients with LCA2 had an acceptable local and systemic adverse-event profile after delivery of AAV2.hRPE65v2.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Voretigene neparvovec gene replacement improved functional vision in RPE65-mediated inherited retinal dystrophy previously medically untreatable.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The safety, extent, and stability of improvement in vision in all patients support the use of AAV-mediated gene therapy for treatment of inherited retinal diseases, with early intervention resulting in the best potential gain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gene therapy for Leber's congenital amaurosis is safe and effective through 1.5 years after vector administration.

TL;DR: The safety of the intervention and the stability of the improvement in visual and retinal function in these subjects support the use of AAV-mediated gene augmentation therapy for treatment of inherited retinal diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
AAV2 Gene Therapy Readministration in Three Adults with Congenital Blindness
Jean Bennett,Jean Bennett,Manzar Ashtari,Jennifer Wellman,Kathleen A. Marshall,Laura Cyckowski,Daniel C. Chung,Daniel C. Chung,Sarah McCague,Eric A. Pierce,Eric A. Pierce,Yifeng Chen,Jeannette L.

TL;DR: The researchers report that the lack of immune response and the robust safety profile in this readministration gene therapy study may be due in part to the immune-privileged nature of the eye, and the low dose and very pure preparation of the AAV vector.
