    In a clinical study of recombinant adeno-associated virus-2 expressing human factor IX (AAV2-FIX), we detected 2 impediments to long-term gene transfer. First, preexisting anti-AAV neutralizing antibodies (NABs) prevent vector from reaching the target tissue, and second, CD8(+) T-cell responses to hepatocyte-cell surface displayed AAV-capsid-terminated FIX expression after several weeks. Because the vector is incapable of synthesizing viral proteins, a short course of immunosuppression, until AAV capsid is cleared from the transduced cells, may mitigate the host T-cell response, allowing long-term expression of FIX. To evaluate coad-ministration of immunosuppression, we studied AAV8 vector infusion in rhesus macaques, natural hosts for AAV8. We administered AAV8-FIX in 16 macaques via the hepatic artery and assessed the effects of (1) preexisting anti-AAV8 NABs, (2) a standard T-cell immunosuppressive regimen, and (3) efficacy and safety of AAV8-FIX. We found that low titers (1:5) of preexisting NABs abrogate transduction, whereas animals with undetectable NABs are safely and effectively transduced by AAV8-FIX. Coadministration of mycophenolate mofetil and tacrolimus with vector does not induce toxicity and does not impair AAV transduction or FIX synthesis. These findings enable a clinical study to assess the effects of immunomodulation on long-term FIX expression in patients with hemophilia B.
