Anti-HIV duoCAR-T cell therapy for HIV infection
The University of California San Francisco (UCSF) is conducting a clinical trial that modifies a patient's own immune cells in order to treat and potentially cure HIV. Current treatment of…
A Phase I, Open-Label Study To Assess The Safety, Feasibility and Engraftment of Zinc Finger Nucleases (ZFN) CCR5 Modified Autologous CD34+ Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells (SB-728MR-HSPC) with Escalating Doses of Busulfan In HIV-1 (R5) Infected Subjects with Suboptimal CD4 Levels on cART
A team at City of Hope and Sangamo Therapeutics is genetically modifying patients' blood forming stem cells to functionally cure people with HIV. The team is using a technology called zinc finger nucleases…
GENE-MODIFIED HEMATOPOIETIC STEM/PROGENITOR CELL BASED THERAPY FOR HIV DISEASE
Calimmune is genetically modifying patients' own blood-forming stem cells (also known as bone marrow stem cells) so they can produce immune cells—the ones normally destroyed by the HIV virus—that cannot…
Stem Cell Gene Therapy for HIV Mediated by Lentivector Transduced, Pre-selected CD34+ Cells in AIDS lymphoma patients
A team at UC Davis is taking a patient's blood forming stem cells and inserting three anti-HIV genes into them and then returning them to the individual to help rebuild…
