Lentiviral FVIII Gene Therapy

Lentiviral FVIII Gene Therapy for Hemophilia A

Lentiviral FVIII Gene Therapy (NCT03217032) is a Phase 1 interventional studying Hemophilia A, sponsored by Shenzhen Geno-Immune Medical Institute. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 1 trials test a new treatment for the first time in humans, focusing on safety, dosing, and how the body processes the drug. For Hemophilia A, a Phase 1 study typically enrolls a small number of participants — often healthy volunteers or patients who have exhausted standard treatment options. Phase 1 results determine whether a treatment moves into larger Phase 2 efficacy studies.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

With a target enrollment of 10 participants, this is a small study — typical of early-phase research, rare-disease trials, or pilot studies designed to generate preliminary signal before a larger study is launched.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: 1. Able to provide willing to sign a consent form and comply with requirements of the study. 2. Males ≥2 years with confirmed diagnosis of hemophilia A (endogenous factor VIII ≤2 IU/dL or ≤2% of normal). 3. A minimum average of 4 bleeding events per year requiring episodic treatment of factor VIII infusions or prophylactic factor VIII infusions. 4. No measurable factor VIII inhibitor as assessed by the central laboratory and have no prior history of inhibitors to factor VIII protein. 5. Agree to use reliable barrier contraception until 3 consecutive samples are negative for vector sequences. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: 1. Significant liver dysfunction as defined by abnormal alanine transaminase, bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase. 2. History of inhibitor against factor VIII. 3. Evidence of active hepatitis B or C and currently on antiviral therapy. 4. Have serological evidence of HIV-1 or HIV-2 with CD4 counts ≤200/mm3 (subjects who are HIV+ and stable with CD4 count \>200/mm3 and undetectable viral load are eligible to enroll). 5. Any evidence of active infection or any immunosuppressive disorder. 6. Participated in a gene transfer trial within the last 6 months or in a clinical trial with an investigational drug within the last 12 weeks. 7. Unable or unwilling to comply with study assessments. Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.

Bring the printable summary of this trial — including the NCT ID (NCT03217032), the sponsor (Shenzhen Geno-Immune Medical Institute), and the key eligibility criteria — to your next appointment. Your doctor can review the inclusion and exclusion criteria against your medical history, lab values, and current treatments to assess whether you are likely to qualify. They can also help you weigh whether trial participation makes sense alongside your existing care plan.

Useful questions to walk through together: What does the trial protocol require beyond standard care? How long is the active treatment phase, and how long is follow-up? Are there study visits at sites I can reach? Who pays for the trial-specific procedures, and who pays for standard-of-care portions?

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the NCT03217032 clinical trial studying?

This study is a Phase I trial using an advanced lentiviral vector to deliver a functional gene for human clotting factor VIII into patients with hemophilia A, to evaluate the safety and efficacy of infusion of lentiviral gene modified autologous stem cells in patients. The full protocol is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov and includes the primary outcome measures, eligibility criteria, and study endpoints.

Who can participate in NCT03217032?

Eligibility for this trial depends on the specific inclusion and exclusion criteria set by the sponsor. The plain-English summary above translates the most important criteria into accessible language; the official clinical text is preserved in the collapsible section underneath. Whether you fit any specific trial is a medical decision your doctor needs to confirm — bring the trial information to your treating physician for a full review against your medical history.

How do I contact the trial site for NCT03217032?

Contact information registered with ClinicalTrials.gov is shown in the sidebar of this page. Before reaching out, confirm with your treating physician that this trial is appropriate for your situation. The trial site will then walk you through the screening process to determine final eligibility.

Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety. Risk varies by trial — Phase 1 studies test new treatments in humans for the first time, while Phase 3 trials use treatments that have already passed earlier safety screening. The informed consent document for any specific trial details the known risks and what to expect. Discuss those risks with your physician before deciding whether to participate.
