Efficient and Safe Therapeutic Use of Paired Cas9-Nickases for Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 1

ABSTRACT: The therapeutic use of adeno-associated viral vector (AAV)-mediated gene disruption using CRISPR-Cas9 is limited by potential off-target modifications and the risk of uncontrolled integration of vector genomes into CRISPR-mediated double-strand breaks. To address these concerns, we explored the use of AAV-delivered paired Staphylococcus aureus nickases (D10ASaCas9) to target the Hao1 gene for the treatment of primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1). Our study demonstrated effective Hao1 gene disruption, a significant decrease in glycolate oxidase expression, and a therapeutic effect in PH1 mice. The assessment of undesired genetic modifications through CIRCLE-seq and CAST-Seq analyses revealed neither off-target activity nor chromosomal translocations. Importantly, the use of paired-D10ASaCas9 resulted in a significant reduction in AAV integration at the target site compared to SaCas9 nuclease. Additionally, our study highlights the limitations of current analytical tools in characterizing modifications introduced by paired D10ASaCas9, necessitating the development of a custom pipeline for more accurate characterization. These results describe a positive advance towards a safe and effective potential long-term treatment for PH1 patients.

CRISPR-SaCas9-KKH targeting of miR-21 through a single adeno-associated virus vector prolongs survival of GB-bearing mice

Project description:Glioblastoma (GB), the most aggressive tumor of the central nervous system (CNS), has poor patient outcomes with limited effective treatments available. MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) is a known oncogene, abundantly expressed in many cancer types. MiR-21 promotes glioblastoma progression, and lack of miR-21 reduces tumorigenic potential of tumor. Here, we propose a single adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector strategy targeting miR-21 using the Staphylococcus aureus Cas9 ortholog (SaCas9) guided by a single-guide RNA (sgRNA). Our results demonstrate that AAV8 is a well-suited AAV serotype to express SaCas9-KKH/sgRNA at the tumor site in an orthotopic glioblastoma model. The SaCas9-KKH induced a genomic deletion, resulting in lowered miR-21 levels in the brain, leading to reduced tumor growth and improved overall survival. In this study we demonstrated that a single AAV-mediated mir-21 disruption influences glioma development resulting in beneficial anti-tumor outcomes in GB-bearing mice.

Genotoxicity after adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy is dependent upon dose, treatment age and enhancer-promoter selection

Project description:AAV gene therapy has recently been approved for clinical use and shown to be efficacious and safe in a growing number of clinical trials. However, the safety of AAV as a gene therapy has been challenged by a few studies that documented hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after AAV gene delivery in mice. The association between AAV and HCC has been difficult to reconcile and is the subject of intense debate because numerous AAV studies have not reported toxicity. Here, we report a comprehensive study of HCC in a large number of mice following therapeutic AAV gene delivery. Using a sensitive high-throughput integration site-capture technique and global expressional analysis, we found that AAV integration into the Rian locus and the over-expression of a proximal gene, Rtl1, were associated with HCC. In addition, we identify a number of genes with differential expression that maybe useful in the study, diagnosis and treatment of HCC. We demonstrate that AAV vector dose, enhancer-promoter selection, and the timing of gene delivery are the defining factors in AAV-mediated insertional mutagenesis. Our results help explain the AAV-mediated genotoxicity previously observed and have important implications for the design of both safer AAV vectors and gene therapy studies. To investigate the possibility that insertional mutagenesis by AAV contributed to the development of HCC, we collected normal and tumor tissues from adult mouse livers that received AAV injection at a neonatal stage.

The longitudinal kinetics of AAV5 vector integration profiles and evaluation of clonal expansion in mice

Project description:Recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based vectors are used clinically for gene transfer and persist as extrachromosomal episomes. A small fraction of vector genomes can integrate into the host genome, but the theoretical risk of tumorigenesis may depend on vector regulatory features. A mouse model was used to investigate long-term kinetics and integration profiles of an AAV serotype 5 (AAV5) vector that mimics key features of valoctocogene roxaparvovec (AAV5-hFVIII-SQ), a gene therapy for severe hemophilia A. The majority (95%) of vector genome reads identified by target enrichment sequencing were derived from episomes, and mean integration frequency was 2.70 (standard deviation, 1.24) integrations per 1000 cells. Longitudinal integration analysis suggested AAV5 vector integrations occur primarily within 1 week, at low frequency, and their abundance was stable over time. Integration profiles were polyclonal, and only 5.46% of integrations had a common integration site order ≥5, suggesting random distributions when looking at a 50-kb genomic window. No integrations were associated with clonal expansion. Integrations were enriched near transcription start sites of genes highly expressed in the liver (P = 1x10−4) and less enriched for genes with low or no liver expression. We found no evidence of tumorigenesis or fibrosis caused by the vector integrations.

AAV vector-derived elements integrate into Cas9-generated double strand breaks and disrupt gene transcription

Project description:We previously found that an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector containing S. aureus Cas9 and a multi-target guide (g)RNA could integrate into the genome and prematurely terminate transcription of Ube3a-ATS, a long non-coding RNA. Here, we assessed the performance of three additional AAV vectors containing S. aureus Cas9 and twenty-five vectors containing N. meningococcus Cas9, all targeting single sites within Ube3a-ATS. We found that none of these single-target gRNA vectors were as effective as multi-target gRNA vectors at reducing Ube3a-ATS expression in neurons. We also developed a new anchored multiplex PCR sequencing (AMP-seq) method and analysis pipeline to quantify the relative frequency of all possible editing events at target sites, including unresolved double-stranded breaks (DSBs) and capture of foreign DNA. We found that integration of AAV was the most frequent editing event (67-89% of all edits) at three different single target sites, far surpassing insertions and deletions (indels). None of the most frequently observed indels was capable of blocking transcription when incorporated into a Ube3a-ATS minigene reporter, whereas two vector derived elements—the polyA and reverse promoter—reduced downstream transcription by up to 50%. Since not all editing events disrupt gene transcription, our findings suggest that the probability that a gene trapping AAV integration event occurs is influenced by which vector-derived element(s) are integrated and by the number of target sites.

scAAVengr, a transcriptome-based pipeline for quantitative ranking of engineered AAVs with single-cell resolution

Project description:Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated gene therapies are rapidly advancing to the clinic, and AAV engineering has resulted in vectors with increased ability to deliver therapeutic genes. Although the choice of vector is critical, quantitative comparison of AAVs, especially in large animals, remains challenging. Here, we developed an efficient single-cell AAV engineering pipeline (scAAVengr) to simultaneously quantify and rank efficiency of competing AAV vectors across all cell types in the same animal. To demonstrate proof-of-concept for the scAAVengr workflow, we quantified – with cell-type resolution – the abilities of naturally occurring and newly engineered AAVs to mediate gene expression in primate retina following intravitreal injection. A top performing variant identified using this pipeline, K912, was used to deliver SaCas9 and edit the rhodopsin gene in macaque retina, resulting in editing efficiency similar to infection rates detected by the scAAVengr workflow. scAAVengr was then used to identify top-performing AAV variants in mouse brain, heart and liver following systemic injection. These results validate scAAVengr as a powerful method for development of AAV vectors.

Safeguarding genome integrity during gene-editing therapy of age-related macular degeneration

Project description:Ensuring genome safety during gene editing is crucial for clinical translation of the high-efficient CRISPR-Cas9 toolbox. Therefore, the undesired events including chromosomal translocations, vector integrations, and large deletions arising during therapeutic gene editing remain to be adequately addressed or tackled in vivo. Here, we apply CRISPR-Cas9TX in comparison to CRISPR-Cas9 to target Vegfa for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) disease in a mouse model. AAV delivery of both CRISPR-Cas9 and CRISPR-Cas9TX can efficiently inhibit laser-induced neovascularization. Importantly, Cas9TX almost eliminates chromosomal translocations that occur at a frequency of approximately 1% in Cas9-edited mouse retinal cells. Strikingly, the widely observed AAV integration at the target Vegfa site is also greatly dropped from nearly 50% of edited events to the background level during Cas9TX editing. Our findings reveal that chromosomal structural variations routinely occur during in vivo genome editing and highlight Cas9TX as a superior form of Cas9 for in vivo gene disruption.

The AAV capsid can influence the epigenetic marking of rAAV delivered episomal genomes in a species dependent manner [CnT_InVitro]

Project description:Recombinant adeno-associated viral vectors (rAAVs) are among the most commonly used vehicles for in vivo based gene therapies. However, it is hard to predict which AAV capsid will provide the most robust expression in human subjects due to the observed discordance in vector-mediated transduction between species. We used a primate specific capsid, AAV-LK03, and demonstrated that the limitation of this capsid towards transduction of mouse cells was unrelated to cell entry and nuclear transport but rather due to depleted histone H3 chemical modifications related to active transcription, namely H3K4me3 and H3K27ac, on the vector DNA itself. A single-amino acid insertion into the AAV-LK03 capsid enabled efficient transduction and the accumulation of active-related epigenetic marks on the vector chromatin in mouse without compromising transduction efficiency in human cells. Our study suggests that the capsid protein itself is involved in driving the epigenetic status of the vector genome, most likely during the process of uncoating. Programming viral chromatin states by capsid design may enable facile DNA transduction between vector and host species and ultimately led to rationale selection of AAV capsids for use in humans.
