Thursday, May 18, 2023

The benchmark vector is identical in design to the only approved gene therapy for SMA.

Key Points: 
  • The benchmark vector is identical in design to the only approved gene therapy for SMA.
  • Furthermore, the second-generation gene therapy resulted in higher levels of SMN protein in the central nervous system (CNS), particularly within motor neurons, and lower expression in the peripheral tissues, compared to benchmark vector-treated mice.
  • Superior transgene expression was observed in disease-vulnerable cells, including ChAT-positive motor neurons in the spinal cord.
  • No evidence of DRG toxicity associated with superior SMN expression was observed at 90 days after ICV injection with the high dose of the second-generation gene therapy.

The study reports that a novel second-generation hSMN1-AAV gene therapy vector, consisting of an endogenous SMN1 promoter and codon-optimized human SMN1 transgene in two different AAV serotypes, outperformed the benchmark gene therapy across several endpoints, including lifespan, weight gain and motor functions, in a mouse model of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) when administered via intracerebroventricular (ICV) delivery.

Key Points: 
  • The study reports that a novel second-generation hSMN1-AAV gene therapy vector, consisting of an endogenous SMN1 promoter and codon-optimized human SMN1 transgene in two different AAV serotypes, outperformed the benchmark gene therapy across several endpoints, including lifespan, weight gain and motor functions, in a mouse model of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) when administered via intracerebroventricular (ICV) delivery.
  • Furthermore, when delivered via ICV at one-tenth the dose used in both high- and low-dose cohorts in an earlier IV study, the second-generation gene therapy produced similar lifespan and body weight gains and improved motor functions.
  • The benchmark therapy uses a vector similar to that used in the only gene therapy approved for SMA.
  • “We believe that the transgene expression in our second-generation SMA gene therapy better mimics the natural physiological levels of SMN1 in transduced tissues.
