The Disease: Lipoprotein Lipase Deficiency
Genetic lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency results in profound hypertriglyceridemia, which is associated with intense chronic abdominal pain, hepatosplenomegaly, eruptive xanthomas, lipemia retinalis, dyspnea, mono- or polyparesthesias, and memory loss. Prolonged elevations in plasma triglycerides (TG) also induce recurrent episodes of often lethal pancreatitis, chronic pancreatic insufficiency, and diabetes mellitus. Currently, no effective treatment for this disease exists. Patients must follow a strict low-fat diet. However, TG levels often remain above the critical threshold. Genetic LPL deficiency type I is a rare, autosomal recessive trait. Prevalence varies between 1 in 1,000,000 in the general population to 1 in 5,000 in French Quebec (a ‘founder effect’).
Acute intermittent porphyria (AlP) is an autosomal dominant inherited condition caused by mutations in the porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD) gene. The PBGD gene is located on chromosome 11 q24.1 -24.2 and spread over fifteen exons. The protein encoded by this gene is a rate-limiting enzyme, the PBGD enzyme, in the haem synthetic pathway.
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, resulting in tremors, stiffness, slowness of movement, and lack of coordination. Patients are faced with a severely debilitating disease and a serious loss in quality of life. PD is caused by degeneration and death of nerve cells in a specific part of the brain known as the substantia nigra. These cells produce dopamine, a substance necessary for communication between nerve cells involved in the coordination of movement.
Licensee is building gene therapies using adeno-associated viral (AAV)-based vectors.

Program Vaccines shall mean any AAV (adeno-associated virus) particle-based vector that contains an HIV-1 gene in the recombinant vector genome and that can act as a prophylactic vaccine against HIV-1.
Proprietary Technology shall mean any Background Technology to the extent it has not previously been disclosed in an issued patent or a published patent application. Background Technology shall mean: (i) the rights to make, use, sell, offer for sale, and import the Licensee-Controlled Inventions; (ii) all inventions (whether or not patented or patentable), know-how, techniques, cell lines, data, studies and results of studies and other proprietary information in the possession or control of Licensor at the Effective Date and at any time thereafter during the period in which Licensor remains a direct participant in the Research and Development Program, to the extent bearing upon the Program Vaccines, the Licensee-Controlled Inventions, the Program Inventions, or any of them within the Program Field (as and to the extent the Program Field exists during the period of such direct participation by Licensor); and (iii) know-how and other proprietary information in the possession or control of Licensee at the Effective Date and at any time thereafter during the period in which Licensee remains a direct participant in the Research and Development Program, to the extent useful for the practice of the Licensee-Controlled Inventions within the Program Field (as and to the extent the Program Field exists during the period of such direct participation by Licensee).
Work Plan and Budget shall mean the set of tasks, procedures, protocols, standards, budgets, and target time frames set forth, as such may be amended or supplemented by mutual written agreement of the parties from time to time.
Program Field shall mean the manufacture of one or more of the Program Vaccines through the use of the particular combination of Program Inventions and Background Technology as implemented by Licensor and Licensee under this Agreement during and in the course of the Research and Development Program (as the same may be supplemented or improved by or for Licensor with other inventions or technology from sources other than Licensor or Licensee), solely for distribution in the Public Sector, and the use, sale, offer for sale, and import of such Program Vaccines so manufactured in and to the Public Sector.

The licensed products mean viral vector products, including without limitation adenovirus (AV) and adeno-associated virus (AAV) viral vector products, for in vivo human gene therapy. Specifically excluded are utilization of non-viral vector products, any ex vivo approach based on the administration of living cells, Factor IX protein produced by or from transgenic animals, and any license rights to make, use, offer for sale, sell, or import Factor IX protein.

Lysosomal storage diseases are a group of about 50 rare inherited metabolic disorders that result from defects in lysosomal function.[1] Lysosomes are sacs of enzymes within cells that digest large molecules and pass the fragments on to other parts of the cell for recycling. This process requires several critical enzymes. If one of these enzymes is defective, because of a mutation, the large molecules accumulate within the cell, eventually killing it.
