Study Evaluating a Gene Therapy for IPEX Syndrome Through the Expression of FOXP3 on Deficient T Cells to Produce Tregs-like. (THERIPEX)

6 juli 2026 bijgewerkt door: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

A Phase I/II Open-label, Non-randomized, Monocentric, Single-arm Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Induced CD4+ Treg by LV Vector Transduction Expressing the FOXP3 cDNA (FOXP3-T4) in Patients With IPEX Syndrome

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of FOXP3-T4 (an autologous gene therapy) alone or in combination with low-dose IL-2 for the treatment of IPEX syndrome. The therapy involves the transplantation of autologous CD4+ T-cells transduced ex vivo with the LV-EF1a-FOXP3-LNGFR lentiviral vector. The study follows a staggered approach: the first two patients will receive FOXP3-T4 monotherapy. Subsequent patients will receive FOXP3-T4 followed if needed by low-dose IL-2 treatment consisting of a daily dose for 5 days, then weekly administrations for 3 months.

The study aims to stabilize autoimmune manifestations and potentially cure the underlying disease, ultimately allowing for the discontinuation of ongoing immunosuppressive treatments.

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

IPEX syndrome is a primary immunodeficiency caused by hemizygous mutations in the gene FOXP3, which encodes an essential transcription factor required to maintain immunological tolerance by thymus-derived regulatory T (Treg) cells. The most common presentation suggestive of the diagnosis of IPEX syndrome is the classical triad of enteropathy, type I diabetes (TID), and eczema in neonatal onset. Still, it is now well established that IPEX syndrome comprises a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations with different degrees of severity and evolution.

Currently, the only curative treatment for the severe form is allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, because of its significant toxicity, it can be proposed only for more severe presentations and when an HLA identical donor is available. Moreover, the post-HSCT prognosis is also linked to prior disease activity and organ failures.

This clinical study aims to assess a new therapeutical strategy consisting of the conversion of the IPEX patient's CD4+T-cells into functional Treg-like cells by transducing them with an optimized bidirectional lentivirus vector expressing human FOXP3 and a truncated form of the low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor (ΔLNGFR) allowing the selection of the transduced cells. To favour Treg-like cells engraftment and expansion, the FOXP3-T4 infusion may be combined with subcutaneous injection of low-dose IL-2, if needed. Injecting FOXP3-T4 T-reg-like cells into IPEX patients is expected to stably improve the autoimmune manifestations and even cure the underlying disease, allowing the ongoing immunosuppressive treatments to be stopped.

Experimenteel: FOXP3-T4 drug product
FOXP3-T4 is a genetically modified cell therapy product consisting of autologous CD4+ T-cells transduced ex vivo with a self-inactivating bidirectional lentiviral vector (LV-EF1a-FOXP3-LNGFR) expressing the FOXP3 and LNGFR cDNAs.
Genetisch: FOXP3-T4 drug product
Each patient will receive a single IV infusion of FOXP3-T4, autologous gene-modified CD4+ T-transduced ex vivo with a self-inactivating lentiviral vector (LV-EF1a.FOXP3-LNGFR)
Geneesmiddel: ILT-101
The first two patients included in the study will not receive IL-2 treatment. The others will receive the first injection the FOXP3-T4 treatment and if needed IL2-treatment. For IL2 treatment, patients will receive a daily dose for 5 days, followed by an administration per week for 3 months (ILT-101)
