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…
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…
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…
