    Setting Safety Parameters in Gene Therapy Trials with Thomas Wechsler – The Issue

    Today's episode takes us into crucial territory where science meets ethics in gene therapy development. Following our recent compelling conversation with Ben Hurlbut on germline genetic editing, we're diving deeper into the ethical dimensions of bringing new treatments to patients. We'll explore two critical challenges that development teams face: determining the initial dose for therapy and establishing acceptable parameters for off-target effects before clinical testing. While these decisions are grounded in scientific data, they carry profound ethical implications – especially considering that AAV-based therapies are currently "one and done" treatments, where redosing isn't yet possible. Thomas Wechsler, chair of the ASGCT Ethics Committee, will join us to help us navigate the technical and ethical dimensions of these crucial decisions. His unique perspective will help us understand how teams balance scientific rigor with ethical responsibility when introducing new therapies to the clinic.

    Non-AAV, Non-rare Gene Therapy with Derek Jackson, Pacira BioSciences–The Issue

    Derek Jackson, vice president of cell and gene therapy product development at Pacira BioSciences, joins The Issue to take the program in a different direction. We often focus our discussions on CGT for rare diseases. Most of the time, the teams of scientists working on the program don’t have any personal experience with the disease from their family, friends, or themselves.. but today we will talk about gene therapy development for a much more common disease: knee osteoarthritis. Moreover, the product we will be discussing is not only non-rare but also non-AAV.  Music by: https://www.steven-obrien.net/--------------------------Bright New Morning - Steven O'Brien (Used for free under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Show your support for ASGCT!: https://asgct.org/membership/donate See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
