Ten patients with adenosine deaminase deficiency
(ADA ) have been enrolled in gene therapy
clinical trials since the first patient was treated in September 1990. We describe a Japanese ADA severe combined immune
deficiency (SCID) patient who has received periodic infusions of
genetically modified autologous T lymphocytes transduced with the human
ADA cDNA containing retroviral vector LASN. The percentage
of peripheral blood lymphocytes carrying the transduced ADA gene has
remained stable at 10% to 20% during the 12 months since the fourth
infusion. ADA enzyme activity in the patient's circulating T cells,
which was only marginally detected before gene transfer, increased to
levels comparable to those of a heterozygous carrier individual and was
associated with increased T-lymphocyte counts and improvement of the
patient's immune function. The results obtained in this trial are in
agreement with previously published observations and support the
usefulness of T lymphocyte-directed gene transfer in the treatment of
ADA SCID.
