Disease | Vector | Delivery route | Anatomic target | Dose | Primary outcome measure(s) | Time to follow-up | Adverse events | Current status |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Safety and tolerability of AAV-hAADC-2 as measured by adverse events | 6 months | Asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage reported postop | Completed (NCT00229736) |
Parkinson’s disease | AAV2-NTN (CERE-120) | Intraparenchymal (CED) | Putamen and substantia nigra |
2.4 × 10^11 vg (substantia nigra) 1.0 × 10^12 vg (putamen) |
Change from baseline in UPDRS motor examination | 3 years | Two patients experienced hemorrhages with transient symptoms | Active, not recruiting (NCT00985517) |
AADC = aromatic amino acid decarboxylase; CED = convection-enhanced delivery; GAD = glutamate decarboxylase; GDNF = glial derived neurotropic factor; UPDRS = Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale
