    This alters extracellular matrix composition, depletes heparan sulfate, impairs astrocyte and oligodendrocyte function, and causes cystic white matter degeneration at the site of highest gene expression. The AAVance trial results will reveal the potential benefit-risk ratio of this therapy.

    Biodistribution of SAF302 was further assessed using GFP (SAF302GFP), indicating that vector spread was limited to the area around the injection tract. Further modification of the injection strategy to a single depth with higher injection volume increased vector distribution leading to more widespread GFP distribution and sustained expression, suggesting this approach should be adopted in future trials.

    Preclinical, Journal:  AAVrh10 Vector Corrects Disease Pathology in MPS IIIA Mice and Achieves Widespread Distribution of SGSH in Large Animal Brains. (Pubmed Central) -  Jan 10, 2020   
    The ability of the vector adeno-associated virus (AAV)rh.10-CAG-SGSH (LYS-SAF302) to correct disease pathology was evaluated in a mouse model for MPS IIIA...Increases of SGSH enzyme activity of at least 20% above endogenous levels were detected in 78% (dogs 4 weeks after injection) and 97% (monkeys 6 weeks after injection) of the total brain volume. Taken together, these data validate intraparenchymal AAV administration as a promising method to achieve widespread enzyme distribution and correction of disease pathology in MPS IIIA.
