(a)

P1 and P6 were included in London, and P2, P3, P4, P5 and P7 were included in Paris; P: patient; GT: gene therapy; HSC: hematopoietic stem cells; BM: bone marrow; MPB: mobilized peripheral blood; VCN: vector copy number per cell in cultured transduced CD34+ cells; Revertant cells are detected in blood and have recovered some expression of WASp as a result of selected spontaneous somatic mutations; Fup: Follow-up; A&W: alive and well; NA: not applicable; Severe eczema is defined by intense redness, thickness/swelling, and may include diffuse or superinfected lesions; Severe infection indicates infections requiring hospitalization and parenteral treatment ; Severe thrombocytopenia is defined as platelet counts below 10,000/mm3.

(b)

P4 had a shorter period of observation since he was treated at the age of 10 months

(c)

Thrombocytopenia was initially below 20,000/mm3 in P1, P2, P3 and P6 and below 10,000/mm3 in P4, P5 and P7. P2 and P3 were splenectomized prior to GT. P1 was successfully splenectomized after GT

P3, P4, P5 had more than 20 platelet transfusions, P7 more than 10, P5 and P7 received additional N-plate therapy.

(d)

P7 has a shorter follow up of 9 months.

“+” Revertant cells and mutant protein are present and detectable in blood cells

“−” Revertant cells and mutant protein are absent and not detectable in blood cells
