  • The role of intraputaminal infusion of eladocagene exuparvovec as a gene therapy for treating the symptoms of AADC deficiency in children is presented
  • The efficacy of eladocagene exuparvovec in increasing body weight (a positive indicator of AADC deficiency) is investigated in a small group of children across 3 single-center trials
  • The effects of eladocagene exuparvovec on minimizing respiratory infections and pneumonia were also assessed in this patient population
  • Treatment emergent adverse events with eladocagene exuparvovec are also described
