Abstract

AbstractValoctocogene roxaparvovec (AAV5-hFVIII-SQ) is an adeno-associated virus serotype five gene therapy under investigation for the treatment of hemophilia A. Herein, we assessed the potential for germline transmission of AAV5-hFVIII-SQ in mice. Male B6.129S6-Rag2tm1Fwa N12 mice received a single intravenous dose of vehicle or 6 × 1013 vg/kg AAV5-hFVIII-SQ. Vehicle and AAV5-hFVIII-SQ-treated mice were mated with naïve females 4 days after dosing, when the concentration of vector genomes was expected to be at its peak in semen, and 37 days after dosing, when a full spermatogenesis cycle was estimated to be complete. Quantitative PCR was used to evaluate the presence of transgene DNA in liver and testes from F0 males dosed with AAV5-hFVIII-SQ and liver tissue of F1 offspring. Transgene DNA was detected in liver and testes of all F0 males dosed with AAV5-hFVIII-SQ, confirming successful transduction. Importantly, no transgene DNA was detected in any tested F1 offspring derived from F0 males dosed with AAV5-hFVIII-SQ. Using a novel 2-stage statistical model that takes into account the number of males dosed with AAV5-hFVIII-SQ and the number of offspring sired by these males, we estimate that the risk of germline transmission is <5% with a 99.2% confidence level.
