About this study

Official title: Gene Therapy for X-linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID-X1) Via Direct Intravenous Injection of Lentiviral Vector (Ivlv-X1)

This is a Phase I/II gene therapy trial treating X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1) using a self-inactivating lentiviral vector (ivlv-X1) to functionally correct the genetic defect. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the direct intravenous lentiviral gene transfer protocol.

Important Regulatory Notice:

This trial record is only for global academic information registration on ClinicalTrials.gov. Neither the sponsor Beijing Meikang Jimian Biotechnology Co., Ltd. nor collaborator Shenzhen Geno-Immune Medical Institute has obtained NMPA clinical trial approval or clinical technology filing permission to carry out interventional cell therapy trials in mainland China.

ClinicalTrials.gov registration alone does not represent legal approval by Chinese health and drug regulatory authorities.

X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1) is a genetic disorder caused by defect in the common cytokine receptor chain, normally on the surface of lymphocytes. Individuals with SCID-X1 lack the normal development of a functional immune system and so have difficulty fighting infections, which may lead to chronic or severe illness and death. X-SCID patients are normally rescued by a bone marrow transplant from a healthy donor. This trial aims to treat SCID-X1 using a self-inactivating lentiviral vector (LV) carrying a functional gene to correct the genetic defect. By direct intravenous (iv) injection of the LV (ivlv-X1) to modify immune cells in the body, this treatment may establish normal healthy immune cells and overcome the immunodeficiency.

The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety of the self-inactivating ivlv-X1-LV, the in vivo gene transfer protocol and the efficacy of immune reconstitution in patients overcoming frequent infections present at the time of treatment, assessment of iv LV gene transfer efficiency, and finally the long-term correction of immunodeficiency.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Direct intravenous injection of ivlv-X1 lentiviral vector in people with SCID, X-Linked, run by Shenzhen Geno-Immune Medical Institute at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Lung-Ji Chang, Ph.D (+86 0755-86573763, c@mkgimi.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Nov 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
