Beremagene geperpavec is a gene therapy based on an engineered, replication-defective herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) encoded with COL7A1 gene, addressing the underlying genetic cause of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. The HSV-1 vector belongs to the human herpes virus (HHV) family of double-stranded DNA viruses. Upon cutaneous application to the wounds, beremagene geperpavec can transduce both keratinocytes and fibroblasts. |
