Clinical Trials

Overview

OAV101

OAV-101 is a version of Zolgensma that is administered intrathecally, or via injection into the spinal canal, rather than into the bloodstream.

It is an investigational gene therapy developed by Novartis Gene Therapies.

Method of Action

Like Zolgensma, a genetically engineered and harmless adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9) is used to deliver a working copy of the SMN1 gene into cells (but it does not integrate into the genome), allowing motor neurons and other cells to produce functional SMN protein.
