In recent years much enthusiasm and energy has been directed toward
the development of human gene therapies, especially for inherited
conditions and cancers. However, current gene transfer technology
is limited in its transduction efficiency and ability to
permanently and safely correct genomic defects. Thus the promise of
gene therapy for these conditions is as yet unrealized. The
progression of gene transfer technology will eventually surmount
these limitations. Gene Therapy for Acute and Acquired Diseases
includes selected examples of ongoing studies in molecular genetics
that have the potential to evolve into human therapies for acute
illnesses. These chapters are intended to highlight lesser known
applications of gene therapy for acquired disorders. It is expected
that human gene therapy trials for these conditions will be
forthcoming in the near future, leading to previously unimaginable
therapies. Thus, this first-ever book about gene therapy for acute
and acquired diseases is intended to serve as a glimpse into the
future.
