Study Summary

This trial will test a new gene therapy for hemophilia A, which if effective could provide a much more convenient treatment option than current methods.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for male adults over 18 with severe or moderately severe hemophilia A, experiencing at least 12 bleeding episodes a year if on-demand therapy. They must have used replacement therapy for over 150 days and have a BMI of ≤30. Participants need to commit to using double-barrier contraception post-treatment until semen tests are negative.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing ASC618, an advanced gene therapy designed to deliver a corrected form of the factor VIII gene to patients with hemophilia A. The goal is to reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes and treatment injections by enabling sustained production of factor VIII in the body.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include immune reactions against the vector (AAV8), liver complications due to gene transfer, injection site reactions, and other unforeseen issues related to altering genes within the body.
