9:34AM Enzo Biochem reports long term retention of antisense RNA in Phase I study of HIV-1 infected subjects; updated report calls results "significant'' (ENZ) 11.14 : Co describes the results of long term follow-up studies of its StealthVector HGTV43 gene medicine as "significant" and "perhaps unique." HIV-1 infected subjects treated with the proprietary retrovirus-based vector showed long term presence of the engineered CD34+ stem cells as well as a long term presence of engineered CD4+ immune cells in circulation. The Phase I clinical trial took place at the University of California San Francisco. "These results are a significant, perhaps unique, example of the survival of engineered CD34+ stem cells in nonablated adult human subjects. That these engineered cells have produced progeny CD4+ immune cells is evidenced by the presence of antisense RNA in these cells in circulation."
