Advancing Gene Therapy Research for Hemophilia A at MCW
Kristi Castello, Division Administrator III at the Medical College of Wisconsin, reposted from Medical College of Wisconsin on LinkedIn:
Quoting Medical College of Wisconsin‘s post:
”For people with hemophilia A, a simple cut or bump can cause excessive bleeding or bruising. While treatments exist to replace this protein, patients may form antibodies to the current therapies.
For more than two decades, MCW’s David A. Wilcox, PhD has worked with colleagues to develop a new gene therapy that could transform how patients with the disease are treated.
The team has completed preliminary studies of a Phase 1 clinical trial at MCW, ran by MCW’s Dr. Mary Eapen, with a gene therapy that genetically-modifies a patient’s own bone marrow cells to make a blood clotting factor.
