RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Severe combined immunodeficiency due to adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency (ADA-SCID) is a rare and life-threatening primary immunodeficiency. METHODS: We treated 50 patients with ADA-SCID (30 in the United States and 20 in the United Kingdom) with an investigational gene therapy composed of autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) transduced ex vivo with a self-inactivating lentiviral vector encoding human ADA. Data from the two U.S. studies (in which fresh and cryopreserved formulations were used) at 24 months of follow-up were analyzed alongside data from the U.K. study (in which a fresh formulation was used) at 36 months of follow-up. RESULTS: Overall survival was 100% in all studies up to 24 and 36 months. Event-free survival (in the absence of reinitiation of enzyme-replacement therapy or rescue allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation) was 97% (U.S. studies) and 100% (U.K. study) at 12 months; 97% and 95%, respectively, at 24 months; and 95% (U.K. study) at 36 months. Engraftment of genetically modified HSPCs persisted in 29 of 30 patients in the U.S. studies and in 19 of 20 patients in the U.K. study. Patients had sustained metabolic detoxification and normalization of ADA activity levels. Immune reconstitution was robust, with 90% of the patients in the U.S. studies and 100% of those in the U.K. study discontinuing immunoglobulin-replacement therapy by 24 months and 36 months, respectively. No evidence of monoclonal expansion, leukoproliferative complications, or emergence of replication-competent lentivirus was noted, and no events of autoimmunity or graft-versus-host disease occurred. Most adverse events were of low grade. CONCLUSIONS: Treatment of ADA-SCID with ex vivo lentiviral HSPC gene therapy resulted in high overall and event-free survival with sustained ADA expression, metabolic correction, and functional immune reconstitution.

RESUMEN

Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a primary immunoglobulin deficiency characterized by recurrent infections and complications, including autoimmunity, enteropathy, polyclonal lymphocytic infiltration or lymphoid malignancy. Innate T cells can support B cell maturation and antibody production. We investigated the numbers, phenotypes and functions of circulating B cell, γδ T cell, invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cell and mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cell subsets in 23 CVID patients and 27 healthy controls. Switched-memory B cells and plasmablasts were depleted in CVID patients (p<0.0001). γδ T cells were found at normal numbers, but iNKT and MAIT cells were depleted (p<0.0001 and p<0.002). MAIT cells were especially low in patients with complicated CVID (p<0.05). MAIT cells from patients appeared more activated and more frequently produced interleukin-17A, interleukin-22 and tumor necrosis factor-α than MAIT cells from healthy subjects in vitro. Thus, MAIT cell depletion and activation may contribute to immunodeficiency and complications associated with CVID.
