Brief description The immense potential of gene therapy for the treatment of genetic liver disease has been confirmed by recent success in a clinical trial for Haemophilia in adult males, and therapeutic benefit in other adult trials is imminent using the same technology. In the young, however, ongoing growth of the liver causes the therapeutic benefit to be short-lived. To address this problem we are developing a powerful new hybrid technology capable of conferring life-long benefit on infants and children.
