A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20240033325A1) outlines a method for treating Danon disease in individuals with an inactivating mutation in the LAMP-2 gene. The method involves administering a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) virion containing a polynucleotide sequence encoding a LAMP-2 protein, specifically LAMP-2B. The therapeutic amount of the rAAV is specified to be less than 2×1014 vector genomes per kilogram of body weight, with additional options for combining the treatment with medications like tacrolimus, rituximab, and eculizumab to enhance efficacy.

Furthermore, the patent details the potential outcomes of the treatment, including transduction of cardiomyocyte and skeletal muscle, correction of Danon disease-associated abnormalities, improvement in cardiovascular pathophysiology, and a low incidence of adverse events. The method also specifies the use of specific promoters and enhancer regions in the AAV expression cassette, as well as the use of an AAV9 capsid for delivery. The patent also includes provisions for unit doses, pharmaceutical compositions, and kits for treating Danon disease, providing a comprehensive approach to addressing this genetic disorder.
