This study examined a lymphocyte gene therapy in which the iduronate-2-sulfatase gene was transferred into the patient's lymphocytes using a retroviral method, in people with mucopolysaccharidosis II (mild Hunter syndrome). Patients whose mild Hunter syndrome was confirmed by clinical, biochemical, and genetic findings could take part. The study was carried out in Phase 1/Phase 2 and has been completed.
The summary above is a plain-language rendering of the official record. The original English title is shown for reference.
Criteria are reproduced from the ClinicalTrials.gov record in the original English. Only the trial team can determine eligibility.
