Mechanism of action

EB-101 uses a lentiviral vector to transduce patient hematopoietic stem cells ex vivo with the ABCD1 gene, which encodes the adrenoleukodystrophy protein responsible for transporting very long-chain fatty acids. The modified cells are then reinfused into the patient, where they engraft and produce functional protein to prevent or slow neurological deterioration in cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy.
