[0003] The technology described herein relates to methods of administering recombinant adeno-associated virus rAAV to the kidney and pharmaceutical compositions comprising rAAV for administration to the kidney.BACKGROUND
[0004] The primary job of the kidney is to filter the blood, removing waste products and excess fluid. The kidneys maintain a healthy balance of water, salts, and minerals. The kidneys also control blood pressure in the body. Kidneys are perfused by approximately 1500L of blood per day in humans, which translates to 180L of glomerular filtrate (primary urine) per day and 1 to 2L of final urine per day.
[0005] Kidneys are made up of greater than 1 million filtering units known as nephrons. The nephron comprises the following regions in order of filtrate passage: glomerulus, glomerular capsule (Bowman’s capsule), proximal tubule, loop of Henle, distal tubule, and collecting duct. The glomerulus is the site of blood filtration; small fenestrations allow fluids and small molecules to pass through, keeping blood cells and proteins out of the kidney tubules; the filtrate is captured by the glomerular capsule. The proximal tubule (also referred to interchangeably as proximal convoluted tubule (PCT)) filters 65% of primary urine; reabsorbs glucose, amino acids, solutes, and low molecular weight proteins; and maintains acid-base balance by reabsorbing bicarbonate. The loop of Henle reabsorbs water and salts; its descending thin limb reabsorbs water concentrating urine, and its ascending thick limb is permeable to ion exchange. The distal tubule (also referred to interchangeably as distal convoluted tubule (DCT)) regulates extracellular fluid volume and electrolyte homeostasis. The collecting duct reabsorbs more water, with fine tuning to the final urine product. Urine flows out14903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPTof the collecting duct through a renal papilla at the apex of a renal pyramid into minor and major renal calyxes. The urine then travels through the renal pelvis and ureter, is stored in the urinary bladder, and is excreted through the urethra. The speed of fluid flow through the kidneys is about 120 mL per minute in a healthy adult, measured as the glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
[0006] Kidney-associated disorders can be treated using genetic vectors, such as a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV). However, it is not beneficial to administer rAAV using the intravenous (IV) route since the virus would transduce other organs (e.g., liver), and the high GFR can reduce transduction efficiency of nephrons. One alternative administration method is to needle puncture the kidney multiple times; however, this administration method is not clinically favorable. A urologist would likely exclude performing such kidney needle punctures because the kidney is highly vascularized and a puncture may result in excessive bleeding. As the kidney is accessible by vascular tract, another method is to cannulate the renal artery, cannulate the renal vein, attach the cannulas to a pump, and circulate an agent (e.g., rAAV) through the resulting isolated and cannulated vasculature. However, this is a complex surgical procedure that can result in complications and discomfort. There is great need for clinically relevant administration methods to efficiently deliver rAAV or other therapeutic compositions to kidneys. There is also need of rAAV that demonstrate tropism and / or efficiency in the kidneys.SUMMARY
[0007] Embodiments of the technology described herein relate to methods of administering a therapeutic composition, including but not limited to recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV), to at least one part of the kidney, such as a nephron or a papilla of a kidney of a subject. This can be accomplished using a retrograde ureter route. The renal papilla is the apex of a renal pyramid in the kidney where urine flows from the collecting ducts into the renal calyxes, renal pelvis, and ureter. Such administration methods can be used to treat a kidney-associated disorder in a subject in need thereof. Also described herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) for administration to the kidney.
[0008] Also described herein are specific rAAVs that showed high transduction in the kidneys following retrograde ureter administration, including but not limited to an rAAV comprising a capsid selected from Table 1 or Fig. 4. Furthermore, described herein are exemplary parameters for the retrograde ureter administration, such as to at least one papilla of a kidney, including administration volume, timings, and / or renal vessel(s) occlusion.
[0009] In one aspect, the retrograde ureter administration can further comprise occlusion, such as with clamps or a balloon catheter, partial occlusion, or non-occlusion of at least one of the renal artery, renal vein, and / or ureter.24903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPT

[0142] Embodiments of the technology described herein relate to methods of administering a therapeutic composition, such as recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV), to a kidney of a subject using a retrograde ureter route. While rAAV is used as an exemplary therapeutic composition herein, it is understood that other therapeutic compositions can be administered using the methods described herein. Accordingly in one aspect, described herein is a method of administering a therapeutic composition to a kidney of a subject, the method comprising: guiding a delivery device through the subject’s urethra, bladder, and ureter; and selectively administering at least a portion of a solution comprising the therapeutic composition to at least one targeted renal papilla of the kidney through the delivery device. In some embodiments, the solution has a total volume of from about 0.13 mL / kg to about 1.25 mL / kg, the kg being the weight of the subject. In some embodiments, a kidney-associated disease or disorder is effectively treated through administration of the therapeutic to the at least one targeted renal papilla. In some embodiments, the therapeutic composition comprises a viral vector (e.g., adenovirus, lentivirus, AAV, etc.), liposomes, micelles, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), small molecules, nanoparticles, antibodies, nucleic acids, polypeptides, or analogues thereof, or any combination thereof.
[0143] As used herein, “retrograde ureter route” or “retro-ureteral (RU)” or “retrograde route” or “retrograde route to the ureter” or “retrograde injection through ureter” or “retrograde administration” or “retrograde ureter administration” etc. are used interchangeably and refer to directing a delivery 184903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPTdevice against the flow of urine out of the kidney through the subjects urethra, bladder, and ureter, and into the renal pelvis, and administering a solution comprising the rAAV, i.e., by injecting the solution into the renal pelvis, where the solution flows into the nephrons of the kidney, including to the nephron tubules, such as the proximal tubules, loops of Henle, distal tubules, and / or collecting ducts.
[0144] In some embodiments, the retrograde ureter route comprises administering the rAAV through a delivery device in contact with, or close to contact with (e.g., 0-20 mm away from), at least one target papilla (e.g., at least 1, at least 2, at least 3, at least 4, at least 5, at least 6, at least 7, at least 8, at least 9, at least 10, or all) of at least one kidney. The target papilla is a specific papilla to which the solution is to be selectively delivered. It is understood that while the solution is intended to be delivered to a specific target papilla, the renal pelvis is typically filled with a fluid; thus, a small portion of the solution may inadvertently diffuse to another papilla. In some embodiments, less than 75%, less than 70%, less than 60%, less than 50%, less than 40%, or less than 30% of the solution delivered to an unintended non-target papilla. In other embodiments, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, or at least 80% of the solution is delivered to the intended target papilla. The delivery device can be any delivery device known in the art for administering a solution the renal pelvis, including a catheter (without a balloon), a balloon catheter, or a ureteroscope, as nonlimiting examples. The number of papillae to administer to can depend on the condition being treated. A human kidney typically contains 6 to 10 papillae, which can vary due to anatomical variations such as papillae fusion. Such administration is referred herein as “trans-papilla” or “trans-papillary” administration. In a preferred embodiment, the retrograde ureter route described herein consists of trans-papilla administration to at least one, at least two, at least three, or at least four renal papillae, or more, or to all (each and every) of the renal papillae.
[0145] In some embodiments, the solution comprising the rAAV is administered in contact with or in close proximity to the renal papilla.

[0172] In one aspect, described herein is a method of transducing at least about 25% of the nephrons in a kidney of a subject with a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV), the method comprising: (a) isolating the kidney from systemic circulation; (b) administering a volume of a solution comprising the rAAV via a ureter (e.g., to at least one papilla) of the kidney in a retrograde route, wherein the volume is from about 0.13 mL / kg to about 1.25 mL / kg (e.g., about 0.13 mL / kg to about 0.33 mL / kg), the kg being the weight of the subject; and (c) re-establishing the kidney into systemic circulation after a period of time of from about 10 minutes to about 60 minutes subsequent to the isolating. In some embodiments, the method results in the transduction of at least about 25% of the nephrons in the kidney with the rAAV.
[0173] In some aspects, described herein is a method of transducing nephrons of a kidney in a subject with a rAAV comprising an AAV2g9 capsid. The method comprises guiding a delivery device (e.g., a ureteroscope, a catheter) through the subject’s urethra, bladder, and ureter, and administering a solution comprising the rAAV to the renal pelvis (e.g., to at least one papilla) of the kidney at a volume of from about 0.13 mL / kg to about 1.25 mL / kg (e.g., about 0.13 mL / kg to about 0.33 mL / kg, the kg being the weight of the subject). In some embodiments, an end of the catheter through which the solution is delivered is positioned in close proximity to a renal papilla, and the solution is administered into the collecting ducts of the renal papilla. In various embodiments, an end of the catheter through which the solution is delivered is positioned in the ureter, and the solution is administered in the ureter and flushed into the renal pelvis of the kidney. In other embodiments, an end of the catheter through which the solution is delivered is positioned in the renal pelvis and the solution is administered directly to the renal pelvis of the kidney. As a result of the administration, nephrons of the kidney are transduced with the rAAV at a therapeutically effective level and / or high efficiency.
[0174] In some aspects, described herein is a method of transducing nephrons of a kidney in a subject with a rAAV. The method comprises guiding a delivery device (e.g., a ureteroscope, a274903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPTcatheter) through the subject’s urethra, bladder, and ureter, and administering a solution comprising the rAAV to the renal pelvis (e.g., to at least one papilla) of the kidney at a volume of from about 0.13 mL / kg to about 1.25 mL / kg (e.g., 0.13 mL / kg to about 0.33 mL / kg, the kg being the weight of the subject). In some embodiments, an end of the catheter through which the solution is delivered is positioned in close proximity to a renal papilla, and the solution is administered into the collecting ducts of the renal papilla. In various embodiments, an end of the catheter through which the solution is delivered is positioned in the ureter and the solution is administered in the ureter and flushed into the renal pelvis of the kidney. In other embodiments, an end of the catheter through which the solution is delivered is positioned in the renal pelvis and the solution is administered directly to the renal pelvis of the kidney. As a result of the administration, nephrons of the kidney are transduced with the rAAV at a therapeutically effective level and / or high efficiency.
[0175] As used here, a “high efficiency” means a level of transduction, e.g., a nephron transduction efficiency or nephron component transduction efficiency, that results in detectable and / or measurable levels of rAAV in cells of the kidney. In various embodiments, a high efficiency corresponds to a nephron transduction efficiency or nephron component transduction efficiency of at least 10%, at least 15%, at least 20%, at least 25%, at least 30%, at least 35%, at least 40%, at least 45%, or at least 50%, or more. In some embodiments, a high efficiency corresponds to an efficiency index (as defined herein; see e.g., Formula I) that is greater than 1, e.g., having efficiency higher than what is achieved by administering rAAV comprising an AAV9 capsid. For example, the efficiency index is greater than 1, greater than 2, greater than 3, greater than 4, greater than 5, greater than 6, greater than 7, greater than 8, greater than 9, greater than 10, greater than 20, greater than 30, greater than 40, greater than 50, greater than 60, greater than 70, greater than 80, greater than 90, greater than 100, greater than 200, greater than 300, greater than 400, greater than 500, greater than 600, greater than 700, greater than 800, greater than 900, greater than 1000, greater than 2000, greater than 3000, greater than 4000, greater than 5000. It is understood that each of the individual efficiency indices described herein can be used to define lower and upper values of an efficiency index range. In some embodiments, the efficiency index is between 1 and 6000, between 1 and 5000, between 1 and 4000, between 1 and 3000, between 1 and 2000, between 1 and 1000, between 1 and 900, between 1 and 800, between 1 and 700, between 1 and 600, between 1 and 500, between 1 and 400, between 1 and 300, between 1 and 200, between 1 and 100, between 1 and 90, between 1 and 80, between 1 and 70, between 1 and 60, between 1 and 50, between 1 and 40, between 1 and 30, between 1 and 20, between 1 and 10, between 1 and 9, between 1 and 8, between 1 and 7, between 1 and 6, between 1 and 5, between 1 and 4, between 1 and 3, or between 1 and 2. Such high efficiencies corresponds to a clinically relevant level of transduction. In various embodiments, a clinically relevant level is a therapeutically and / or pharmaceutically effective level.284903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPT
[0176] In some embodiments, the method results in a therapeutically and / or pharmaceutically effective level of a therapeutic composition in the nephrons of the kidney, for example a therapeutically and / or pharmaceutically effective level of rAAV transduction in the nephrons of the kidney, which can vary depending on the specific disease and / or location in the kidney of the transduction. The terms “therapeutically effective” or “pharmaceutically effective” level of transduction refer to the level of transduction sufficient to provide transgene expression (e.g., a transgene encoded by the rAAV genome) in the transduced kidney cells that is sufficient to treat or ameliorate at least one symptom caused by or resulting from a kidney-associated disorder in the subject or to inhibit, slow, minimize, or reverse the progression of a kidney-associated disorder in the subject. In various embodiments, a therapeutically and / or pharmaceutically effective level corresponds to a nephron transduction efficiency or nephron component transduction efficiency of at least 10%, at least 15%, at least 20%, at least 25%, at least 30%, at least 35%, at least 40%, at least 45%, or at least 50%.
[0177] In some embodiments, the method results in the transduction of at least about 25% of the nephrons in the kidney with the rAAV. For example, by blocking (e.g., clamping) the renal artery or isolating the kidney from systemic circulation, administering 20 mb to kidney via ureter, holding for 15-30 min, and unblocking (e.g., unclamping) or re-establishing the kidney into systemic circulation, rAAV transduction of the nephrons is at least 30%, which had not previously been described.
[0178] As used herein, the terms “transducing a nephron” or “transducing nephrons” interchangeably refer to transducing at least one cell of a nephron, the at least one cell being: a glomerulus cell (including cells of Bowman’s capsule); a proximal tubule (also referred to as a proximal convoluted tubule) cell; a cell of the loop of Henle (including descending and / or ascending limbs, and thick and / or thin regions thereof); a distal tubule (also referred to as a distal convoluted tubule) cell; a collecting duct cell; or a combination thereof. Similarly, the terms “transducing a nephron ‘component’” or “transducing nephron ‘components’” interchangeably refer to transducing at least one cell of a nephron component, the nephron component being: a glomerulus (including Bowman’s capsule); a proximal tubule (also referred to as a proximal convoluted tubule); the loop of Henle (including descending and / or ascending limbs, and thick and / or thin regions thereof); a distal tubule (also referred to as a distal convoluted tubule); or a collecting duct.
[0179] As used herein, the phrases “administering to at least one papilla” or “administering to at least one renal papilla” refer to administering the rAAV to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or more, or at least 5%, at least 10%, at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%, or all, of the papilla in one or both of the subject’s kidneys.
[0180] The terms “nephron transduction efficiency” and “nephron component transduction efficiency” refer to a number of transduced nephrons or nephron components relative to the total294903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPTnumber of nephrons or total number of nephron components in a kidney, respectively. Accordingly, a nephron transduction efficiency of 10% means that 10% of the total number of nephrons in the kidney are transduced. For example, in a hypothetical kidney having exactly 1 million (1,000,000) nephrons, a nephron transduction efficiency of 10% means that 100,000 of the 1,000,000 nephrons are transduced. Put another way, in the hypothetical kidney having exactly 1 million (1,000,000) nephrons, the nephron transduction efficiency of 10% means that at least one cell in each of 100,000 individual nephrons of the 1,000,000 total individual nephrons is transduced. Similarly, a proximal tubule transduction percentage of 10% means that 10% of the total number of proximal tubules in the kidney are transduced. For example, in a hypothetical kidney having exactly 1 million (1,000,000) proximal tubules (e.g., one proximal tubule per nephron), a proximal tubule transduction efficiency of 10% means that 100,000 of the 1,000,000 proximal tubules are transduced. Put another way, in the hypothetical kidney having exactly 1 million (1,000,000) nephrons (thus 1,000,0000 proximal tubules), the proximal tubule transduction efficiency of 10% means that at least one cell in each of 100,000 individual proximal tubules of the 1,000,000 total individual proximal tubules is transduced.
[0181] In some embodiments, the rAAV is administered to at least one renal papilla of at least one kidney. The transduction efficiencies described herein are understood to refer to the percentage transduced of the total nephrons, tubules, or cells to which the rAAV was administered. For example, if the rAAV is administered to one renal papilla, the transduction efficiency can be determined for the nephrons, tubules, or cells connected to the administered papilla, for example found in the renal pyramid associated with the administered papilla.
[0182] Because a transduced nephron component can have more than one cell that is transduced, this aspect can be discussed in terms of a “cellular transduction efficiency.” For example, a single nephron can have a nephron cellular transduction efficiency of 30%, which means that 30% of the total number cells making up that single nephron are transduced. Similarly, a single proximal tubule may have a proximal tubule cellular transduction efficiency of 30%, which means 30% of the total number cells in that single proximal tubule are transduced. It is understood that even though 30% of the total number cells in the proximal tubule are transduced, this aspect does not preclude transduction of other components of the same nephron. For example, a cell can have a proximal tubule cellular transduction efficiency of 30% along with specified or unspecified cellular efficiency relating to cells of the loop of Henle (ascending and / or descending limbs, and thick and / or thin regions thereof), cells of the distal tubule, and / or cells of the corresponding collecting duct.
[0183] Accordingly, in some aspects, the current technology provides for both a nephron transduction efficiency and a cellular transduction efficiency. As an example, the term “a proximal tubule transduction efficiency of at least 20% and a proximal tubule cellular transduction efficiency of at least 30%” means that at least 20% of the of the total number of proximal tubules in a kidney are transduced and at least 30% of the proximal tubule cells in each of the transduced proximal tubules304903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPTare transduced, or to put it another way, at least 30% of the proximal tubule cells in at least 20% of the total number proximal tubules in the kidney are transduced.
[0184] Descriptions herein, for example, of transduction of a percentage of nephrons in a kidney may refer to a nephron transduction efficiency, a nephron component transduction efficiency, and / or a cellular transduction efficiency.
[0185] In some embodiments, the method results in a proximal tubule transduction efficiency of at least 5%, at least 10%, at least 15%, at least 20%, at least 25%, at least 30%, at least 35%, at least 40%, at least 45%, or at least 50%, at least 55%, at least 60%, at least 65%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, 5-15%, 10-20%, 15-25%, 20-30%, 25-35%, 30-40%, 35-45%, 40-50%, 45-55%, 50-60%, 55-65%, 60-70%, 65-75%, 70-80%, 75-85%, 80-90%, 85-95%, 90-100%, 95-100%, or more. It is understood that each of the individual percentages described herein can be used to define lower and upper values of a percentage range.
[0186] In some embodiments, the rAAV is administered to at least one renal papilla (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or more, or all) of at least one kidney, and the method results in a proximal tubule transduction efficiency of at least 5%, at least 10%, at least 15%, at least 20%, at least 25%, at least 30%, at least 35%, at least 40%, at least 45%, or at least 50%, at least 55%, at least 60%, at least 65%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, 5-15%, 10-20%, 15-25%, 20-30%, 25-35%, 30-40%, 35-45%, 40-50%, 45-55%, 50-60%, 55-65%, 60-70%, 65-75%, 70-80%, 75-85%, 80-90%, 85-95%, 90-100%, 95-100%, or more, determined as the percentage of transduced proximal tubules of the total number of proximal tubules connected to the administered papilla(e).

It is understood that each of the individual percentages described herein can be used to define lower and upper values of a percentage range.

[0219] In some embodiments, the volume of the solution comprising the rAAV is from about 0.13 mL / kg to about 1.25 mL / kg of the subject. In some embodiments, the volume of the solution comprising the rAAV is from about 0.2 mL / kg to about 1.25 mL / kg of the subject. In some embodiments, the volume of the solution comprising the rAAV is from about 0.13 mL / kg to about 0.33 mL / kg of the subject. The “kg” (kilograms) indicates the weight of the subject. The volume of 0.13 mL / kg to about 0.33 mL / kg is equivalent to 10 mL to 25 mL in a 75 kg subject. In some embodiments, the volume can be adjusted according to the weight of the subject. For example, instead of administering 25 mL maximal volume to a 75 kg subject, 30 mL maximal volume can be administered to a 90 kg subject. In some embodiments, the subject weighs 60 kg to 90 kg. Volumes below 0.13 mL / kg may not be sufficient to elicit sufficient transduction in the kidney. On the other hand, volumes above 0.33 mL / kg may damage the kidney.

It is understood that each of the individual volumes described herein can be used to define lower and upper values of a volume range.
[0222] In some embodiments, heparin is administered to the subject prior to, during, or after the retrograde rAAV administration, e.g., to prevent blood coagulation during the procedure. In some embodiments, the heparin can be used in combination with administration to individual papillae, without blocking of the renal artery, renal vein, and / or ureter.
[0223] In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-renal pressure that results in pyelotubular reflux and pyelovenous backflow with no fornix rupture. The term “pyelotubular reflux” (also referred to interchangeably as “intrarenal reflux”) refers to urinary reflux (i.e., a backward or return flow) from renal pelvis and calyces into the collecting ducts; pyelotubular reflux can be seen as a blush of the renal pyramid on voiding cystourethrography. The term “pyelovenous backflow” (also referred to as “pyelovenous reflux”) refers to drainage of fluid from the renal pelvis of a kidney into the renal venous system; pyelovenous backflow can occur when abnormal amounts of intra-renal pressure occur in a direction opposite to normal. The term “renal fornix” (or “fornix”) refers to the thin pointed projections, arising from the lateral aspects of each minor calyx, and extending a short distance into the renal columns; each fornix contacts the renal pyramid on its inner surface. Rupture of the renal fornix can be due to increased renal pelvis pressure; rupture of one or more renal fornices can lead to peri-renal or retro-peritoneal extravasation (leakage) of urine.
[0224] The normal intrarenal pressure (IRP) range is 0 cm H2O to 20 cm H2O. An IRP between 27 cm H2O to 41 cm H2O results in pyelotubular reflux. An IRP between 41 cm H2O to 68 cm H2O results in pyelovenous backflow. An IRP below 27 cm H2O does not result in pyelotubular reflux or pyelovenous backflow and is thus not an effective IRP for the methods described herein. An IRP between 81 cm H2O to 95 cm H2O can result in fornix rupture. As such, the methods described herein use an IRP that is 80 cm H2O or less. An above-normal IRP (e.g., for an extended time period, e.g., multiple days) can be associated with infectious and hemorrhagic complications, as well as kidney damage. See e.g., Pauchard et al. “A Practical Guide for Intra-Renal Temperature and Pressure Management during Rirs: What Is the Evidence Telling Us,” J Clin Med. 2022 Jun; 11(12): 3429; the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0225] In some embodiments, the administered volume and resultant intrarenal pressure are determined in a subject, such as a human, a non-human primate, or a pig, which is a relevant animal model for human translation due to their anatomical and physiological similarities to humans.Intrarenal pressure can be measured by methods known in the art, such as a sensor wire (e.g., a wire including a pressure sensor; e.g., placed into the renal cavities) and the like.444903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPT
[0226] When working with an irrigation flow (i.e., flow rate) greater than 6 mL / min, the ureter behaves like an open tube, resulting in a linear relationship between flow and pressure. In some embodiments, about 0.13 mL / kg to about 0.35 mL / kg of the rAAV solution are administered over a time period from about 0.5 minutes (30 seconds) to about 2 minutes (120 seconds). The time for administration of the rAAV can be shorter for smaller volumes and / or smaller subjects (e.g., 5 mL / min for 2.5 mL in about 0.5-1.0 minutes for an 8-12 kg subject) or longer for larger volumes and / or larger subjects (e.g., 9 mL / min for 18 mL in about 1-2 minutes for a 60-80 kg subject). A shorter time period for administration of the rAAV can reduce risk of damage to the fornix structure of the kidney. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered for a time sufficient to reach a desired intrarenal pressure (e.g., from about 25 cm H2O to about 55 cm H2O, or from about 27 cm H2O to about 80 cm H2O). In some embodiments, about 0.13 mL / kg to about 0.35 mL / kg of the rAAV solution are administered over a time period from about 10 minutes to about 60 minutes, resulting in a flow rate from between about 0.167 mL / min to about 2.5 mL / min. In some embodiments, the flow rate is below 6 mL / min. In some embodiments, the ureter does not behave like an open tube when the rAAV solution is administered. In some embodiments, the volume of the administered solution significantly affects efficacy of the treatment, while the flow rate does not significantly affect efficacy of the treatment.
[0227] In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-renal pressure of from about 25 cm H2O to about 55 cm H2O. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-renal pressure of about 46 cm H2O. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intrarenal pressure of about 45 cm H2O. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-renal pressure of from about 27 cm H2O to about 80 cm H2O. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-renal pressure of from about 27 cm H2O to about 41 cm H2O. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-renal pressure of from about 41 cm H2O to about 68 cm H2O. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-renal pressure of from about 68 cm H2O to about 80 cm H2O. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-renal pressure of about at least 20 cm H2O, at least 25 cm H2O, at least 30 cm H2O, at least 35 cm H2O, at least 40 cm H2O, at least 45 cm H2O, at least 50 cm H2O, at least 55 cm H2O, at least 60 cm H2O, at least 65 cm H2O, at least 70 cm H2O, or at least 75 cm H2O. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-renal pressure of about at most 25 cm H2O, at most 30 cm H2O, at most 35 cm H2O, at most 40 cm H2O, at most 45 cm H2O, at most 50 cm H2O, at most 55 cm H2O, at most 60 cm H2O, at most 65 cm H2O, at most 70 cm H2O, at most 75 cm H2O, or at most 80 cm H2O. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered to the kidney at an intra-454903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPTrenal pressure range of about 20-30 cm H2O, 25-35 cm H2O, 30-40 cm H2O, 35-45 cm H2O, 40-50 cm H2O, 45-55 cm H2O, 50-60 cm H2O, 55-65 cm H2O, 60-70 cm H2O, 65-75 cm H2O, 70-80 cm H2O, 20-40 cm H2O, 20-50 cm H2O, 20-60 cm H2O, 20-70 cm H2O, 20-80 cm H2O, 25-85 cm H2O, 30-80 cm H2O, 40-80 cm H2O, 50-80 cm H2O, or 60-80 cm H2O. It is understood that each of the individual intrarenal pressures described herein can be used to define lower and upper values of an intrarenal pressure range.
[0228] In some embodiments, the solution comprising the rAAV is administered in the retrograde route to, for example at least one papilla, via the ureter using a catheter or cannula. As used herein, the terms “catheter” and “cannula” are used interchangeably to refer to a hollow tube that can inserted into, for example, a body cavity, a blood vessel, the urethra, the ureter, etc.; in some embodiments, the catheter is thin (e.g., at most 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 mm in diameter) and / or flexible. In some embodiments, the catheter is made from a material that does not trigger an immune response (e.g., latex, silicone, TEFLON, polyvinyl chloride, etc.) and / or is treated to reduce infection (e.g., silver-coated catheter). In some embodiments, any solutions or pharmaceutical composition described herein (e.g., comprising at least one rAAV) can be manually delivered via the ureter (e.g., to at least one papilla) using a plunger associated with a catheter or cannula. In some embodiments, any solutions or pharmaceutical composition described herein (e.g., comprising at least one rAAV) can be manually delivered via the ureter (e.g., to at least one papilla) using an automatic injection, e.g., pump (syringe pump, peristaltic pump, etc.).
[0229] In some embodiments, a catheter can be used to administer the rAAV solution to the kidney. The catheter can be inserted through the subject’s urethra, through the bladder, and up through a ureter of the kidney to a desired location within the ureter, e.g., at, near, or in the renal pelvis. In some embodiments, the catheter used to administer the solution comprising the rAAV is a balloon catheter. In some embodiments, the balloon catheter is inflated to block the ureter and prevent, inhibit, or minimize urine and / or rAAV backflow downstream of the balloon, e.g., from the bladder, back toward the kidney, before, during, and / or after administration of the solution comprising the rAAV. In some embodiments, the balloon catheter is deflated to unblock the ureter after the period of time, e.g., after 10-60 minutes subsequent to the blocking and / or after administering the solution comprising the rAAV. In some embodiments, the catheter used to administer the solution comprising the rAAV is a non-balloon catheter and / or the ureter is not blocked during administration of the solution comprising the rAAV.
[0230] In some embodiments, the administering the volume of the solution comprising rAAV via the ureter of the kidney in the retrograde route is performed by injecting the rAAV, e.g., a composition comprising the rAAV, into at least one renal papilla. The injecting can be performed using a syringe coupled to and in fluid communication with the catheter. The injecting is performed over an injection time period of from about 1 second (s) to about 5 minutes (min), from about 1464903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPTsecond to about 4 minutes, from about 1 second to about 3 minutes, from about 1 second to about 2 minutes, from about 1 second to about 1 minute, from about 0.5 minutes (30 seconds) to about 0.75 minutes (45 seconds), from about 0.5 minutes (30 seconds) to about 1 minute (60 seconds), from about 1 minute (60 seconds) to about 2 minutes (120 seconds), from about 0.5 minutes (30 seconds) to about 2 minutes (120 seconds), for example, for about 1 s, about 2 s, about 3 s, about 4 s, about 5 s, about 6 s, about 7 s, about 8 s, about 9 s, about 10 s, about 11 s, about 12 s, about 13 s, about 14 s, about 15 s, about 16 s, about 17 s, about 18 s, about 19 s, about 20 s, about 21 s, about 22 s, about 23 s, about 24 s, about 25 s, about 26 s, about 27 s, about 28 s, about 29 s, about 30 s, about 31 s, about 32 s, about 33 s, about 34 s, about 35 s, about 36 s, about 37 s, about 38 s, about 39 s, about 40 s, about 41 s, about 42 s, about 43 s, about 44 s, about 45 s, about 46 s, about 47 s, about 48 s, about 49 s, about 50 s, about 51 s, about 52 s, about 53 s, about 54 s, about 55 s, about 56 s, about 57 s, about 58 s, about 59 s, about 1 min, about 1.25 min, about 1.5 min, about 1.75 min, about 2 min, about 2.25 min, about 2.5 min, about 2.75 min, about 3 min, about 3.25 min, about 3.5 min, about 3.75 min, about 4 min, about 4.25 min, about 4.5 min, about 4.75 min, or about 5 min. In some embodiments, the injection time period is less than or equal to about 5 min, less than or equal to about 4 min, less than or equal to about 3 min, less than or equal to about 2 min, or less than or equal to about 1 min. It is understood that each of the individual times described herein can be used to define lower and upper values of a time range.
[0231] In other embodiments, the administering the volume of the solution comprising rAAV does not comprise a continuous perfusion of the composition comprising rAAV that extends beyond about 5 minutes. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered using a retrograde ureter route (e.g., using a syringe coupled to and in fluid communication with a catheter in the ureter) to a kidney reversibly, i.e., temporarily, isolated from systemic circulation over a time period of at most 5 minutes, and the isolated kidney is re-established into systemic circulation after a period of time of from about 10 minutes to about 60 minutes after the isolating. In some embodiments, the isolation period is replaced with a blocking period (e.g., using a balloon catheter or clamp) of about of from about 10 minutes to about 60 minutes after the blocking, and a solution comprising the rAAV is administered using a retrograde ureter route (e.g., using a syringe coupled to and in fluid communication with a catheter in the ureter) to the blocked kidney over a time period of at most 5 minutes. The at most 5 -minute administration of the rAAV can be performed at any time during the 10-minute to 60-minute isolation or blocking period of the kidney. For example, the rAAV administration is performed at about minutes 0-5, about minutes 5-10, about minutes 10-15, about minutes 15-20, about minutes 20-25, about minutes 25-30, about minutes 30-35, about minutes 35-40, about minutes 40-45, about minutes 45-50, about minutes 50-55, or about minutes 55-60 of the 10 minute to 60 minute kidney isolation or blocking period. In some embodiments, a solution comprising the rAAV is administered in discontinuous increments, e.g., about 1 -minute injection followed by474903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPTabout 1 -minute of isolation or blocking without injection, rejected iteratively until the entire rAAV volume has been administered.
[0232] As described herein, prior to and during administration of the solution comprising the rAAV to the kidney, the kidney is reversibly isolated from the subject’s systemic circulation. As used herein, the term “systemic circulation” refers to a flow of blood through a subject’s vascular system from the heart to organs and tissues throughout the body (including kidneys) and back to the heart. Via beating of the heart, oxygenated blood is carried through arteries to organs and tissues where the arteries transition into arterioles and then to capillaries where gas exchange occurs. Deoxygenated blood is then transferred from the capillaries to venules, which transition into veins, and then back to the heart. With specific regard to a kidney, the vascular system includes a renal artery, which supplies oxygenated blood to the kidney, and a renal vein, which carries deoxygenated blood away from the kidney. By “isolating the kidney from systemic circulation,” it is meant that blood flow through a particular kidney is slowed, minimized, substantially stopped, or stopped. Isolating a kidney from systemic circulation can be achieved by blocking at least one renal blood vessel (i.e., the renal artery and / or renal vein) of the kidney and / or by diverting the circulation away from the kidney, for example, by way of an external circuit, such that systemic blood flow does not continuously enter the “isolated kidney” by way of the renal artery. Accordingly, any agent delivered to the systemic circulation will not enter and / or circulate through the kidney when the kidney is “isolated.” Isolating a kidney from systemic circulation results in reduced or no urine production in nephrons of the kidney, thus in the kidney itself. Accordingly, urine production is minimized or decreased relative to a kidney that has not been isolated from systemic circulation or stopped, which allows for a more effective backflow of the retrograde ureter rAAV administration in the urinary tract.
[0233] In some embodiments, the method can involve no blocking of renal vessels, particularly when there is direct administration to at least one papilla. In some embodiments, the method comprises blocking at least one renal blood vessel of the kidney. By blocking at least one renal blood vessel, the kidney is isolated from systemic circulation. In some embodiments, only the renal artery is blocked and the renal vein is not blocked. In other embodiments, only the renal vein is blocked and the renal artery is not blocked. In yet other embodiments, both the renal artery and the renal vein are blocked. Accordingly, only one of the renal blood vessels can be blocked or both of the renal blood vessels can be blocked. Blocking a renal blood vessel can be performed by methods known in the art, including by occluding or clamping. Blocking a renal blood vessel by occluding or clamping isolates the kidney from systemic circulation without the formation or introduction of an external or secondary circuit. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the at least one kidney is isolated from systemic circulation without an external or secondary circuit. In some embodiments, neither the renal artery nor the renal vein are blocked.484903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPT
[0234] Occluding the at least one renal blood vessel comprises introducing an occlusion into the at least one blood vessel, such that the flow of blood through the at least one renal blood vessel is slowed, minimized, substantially stopped, or stopped. Such an occlusion can be introduced by use of a catheter, such as a dilation catheter, a balloon catheter, or a perfusion catheter as non-limiting examples. In some embodiments, the catheter is inserted into an accessible artery or vein, such as the femoral artery, femoral vein, internal jugular vein, and the like, as determined by a medical professional. In some embodiments, the catheter is inserted percutaneously. Accordingly, the catheter can be directed internally to a desired location of a targeted blood vessel, such as the renal artery or renal vein. For example, in some embodiments, a balloon catheter is percutaneously directed to a desired renal blood vessel and is then inflated to block the renal blood vessel, which slows, minimizes, substantially stops, or stops blood supply to the kidney and isolates the kidney from systemic circulation. When both renal blood vessels are to be blocked, separate balloon catheters are directed to each individual renal blood vessel. Blocking the at least one renal blood vessel is performed prior to administration of the solution comprising the rAAV. As discussed herein, the at least one renal blood vessel is unblocked after a time period of from about 10 minutes to about 60 minutes subsequent to the blocking and / or after administering the solution comprising the rAAV. The blocking period and the isolating period, whichever period is implied, are measured from moment of blocking or isolating, i.e., subsequent to the blocking or isolating and / or after administering the solution comprising the rAAV. Unblocking the at least one renal blood vessel is performed by, for example, deflating the balloon of the catheter, which reestablishes blood flow to the kidney and reintroduces the kidney to systemic circulation.
[0235] Clamping the at least one renal blood vessel comprises clamping the at least one blood vessel, such that the flow of blood through the at least one renal blood vessel is slowed, minimized, substantially stopped, or stopped. Non-limiting examples of suitable clamps include renal artery clamps, artery clamps, vascular clamps, artery clips, vascular clips, renal vein clamps, renal vein clips, Dieffenbach clamps, and hemostats. Such a clamp can be introduced through an incision made in the subject. For example, in some embodiments, a clamp is directed to and placed on a desired renal blood vessel. The clamp squeezes and blocks the renal blood vessel, which slows, minimizes, substantially stops, or stops blood supply to the kidney and isolates the kidney from systemic circulation. When both renal blood vessels are to be blocked, separate clamps are directed to each individual renal blood vessel. Blocking the at least one renal blood vessel is performed prior to administration of the solution comprising the rAAV. As discussed herein, the at least one renal blood vessel is unblocked after a time period of from about 10 minutes to about 60 minutes subsequent to the blocking and / or after administering the solution comprising the rAAV. Unblocking the at least one renal blood vessel is performed by, for example, unclamping or releasing the clamp, which reestablishes blood flow to the kidney and reintroduces the kidney to systemic circulation.494903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPT
[0236] In some embodiments, the method comprises introducing an external or secondary circuit to isolate the kidney from systemic circulation. In some embodiments, the method for using an external circuit to isolate the kidney comprises: (a) positioning a perfusion catheter in the renal artery of the kidney; (b) positioning a recovery catheter in the renal vein of the kidney, wherein the perfusion catheter and the recovery catheter together with a membrane oxygenation device form a closed external perfusion circuit through the kidney; and (c) causing a perfusate to flow through the external circuit, wherein the external circuit isolates perfusion through the kidney from the systemic circulation of the subject. Positioning the perfusion and recovery catheters can include blocking the renal artery and / or the renal vein, respectively, for example, by use of a balloon catheter. See e.g., International Patent Publication WO2022175546A1, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. The perfusate can be, for example, blood donated from the subject or from another subject prior to the performance of the method. Such a use of an external circuit to isolate the kidney from systemic circulation can also be referred to as an “isolated perfused kidney (IPK).” In some embodiments, the IPK is maintained in a physiological environment without ischemia. In some embodiments, the flow rate of the perfusate circulated through the closed circuit does not deviate significantly from the patient’s own blood flow rate in order to avoid ischemia and / or under perfusion. In some embodiments, the blood from the recovery catheter in the renal vein is recirculated back to the perfusion catheter in the renal artery to form an external circuit. The rAAV can be administered via a retrograde route through a ureter while the kidney is isolated from systemic circulation by way of the external circuit.
[0237] In some embodiments, the method for re-establishing the kidney into systemic circulation comprises disassembling the external circuit, for example, by: (a) removing the perfusion catheter from the renal artery of the kidney; (b) removing the recovery catheter from the renal vein of the kidney; and (c) allowing blood from systemic circulation to flow into the renal artery and out of the renal vein back into systemic circulation. Because the external circuit allows for a continuous supply of oxygen to the kidney, re-establishing the kidney to the systemic circulation can be performed at a time period longer than kidney isolation methods that impart ischemia to the kidney.
[0238] In some embodiments, the method does not comprise a continuous perfusion of the kidney. In some embodiments, the method does not comprise a closed circuit comprising the kidney. In some embodiments, the method does not comprise a substantially closed system comprising the kidney. In some embodiments, the method does not comprise diverting circulation from the kidney. In some embodiments, the method does not comprise bypassing the kidney. In some embodiments, the method is performed in vivo. In some embodiments, the method is not performed ex vivo.

In some embodiments, the method is not performed in vivo. In some embodiments, the method is performed ex vivo.
[0240] In some embodiments, during the period of time of isolating the kidney from systemic circulation, for example, by blocking the at least one renal blood vessel, the isolated kidney is maintained under normothermic “warm” conditions (i.e., body temperature).

[0241] In some embodiments, the period of time for isolating the kidney from systemic circulation, for example, by blocking the at least one renal blood vessel, is such that the kidney does not undergo substantial ischemic damage (e.g., build-up of metabolic waste products, inability to maintain cell membranes, mitochondrial damage, and / or leakage of autolyzing proteolytic enzymes into the kidney cell and surrounding kidney tissues). In some embodiments, the period of time for isolating the kidney from systemic circulation is about 15 minutes subsequent to the isolating.

[0267] In some embodiments, the rAAV comprises a rational polyploid. As used herein, the term “rational polyploid” refers to AAV vectors which are composed of capsids from two or more AAV734903-3015-35943Attorney Docket No: 046192-000134WOPTserotypes, which can take advantages from individual serotypes for an altered behavior such as tropism, transduction or antigenicity. Some of these polyploid viruses have the ability to change the tropism and transduction efficiency, as well as escape the neutralization by neutralizing antibodies (Nabs). Previously described methodology permits the rational design and production of virions. Such virions are sometimes referred to as “rational polyploid” virions to refer to the fact that the capsid proteins VP1, VP2, and VP3 come from at least two different serotypes, but not all the same serotype. The term “haploid” is sometimes used to refer to a virion where the capsid proteins VP1, VP2 and VP3 are from at least two different serotypes, and the term “triploid” is used to commonly refer to a virion where the capsid proteins VP1, VP2 and VP3 are from three different serotypes. In particular, such rational polyploid, e.g., rational haploid virions and their method of production are disclosed in US Patent No. 10,550,405, which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.
[0268] In some embodiments, the rAAV comprises a capsid protein from serotype AAV2G9 or variants thereof. The AAV2G9 capsid comprises amino acids substitutions that introduce a new glycan binding site into the AAV capsid protein. The AAV2G9 capsid protein comprises the Gal binding footprint from AAV9 onto the AAV2 VP3. The AAV2G9 capsid protein was generated by substituting amino acid residues directly involved or flanking the Gal recognition site on the AAV9 VP3 capsid protein subunit onto corresponding residues on the VP3 subunit of AAV2 (e.g., AAV2 VP3 numbering: A266S, Q464V, A467P, D469N, I470M, R471A, D472V, S474G, Y500F, and / or S501A). See e.g., Shen et al. “Engraftment of a Galactose Receptor Footprint onto Adeno-associated Viral Capsids Improves Transduction Efficiency,” The Journal Of Biological Chemistry vol. 288, no.40, pp. 28814-28823, October 4, 2013; Shen, “Understanding And Manipulating AAV-Glycan Interactions,” University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill dissertation (2013) (available on the world wide web at cdr.lib.unc.edu / concem / dissertations / pc289j203); International Patent Publication WO2014144229A1; US Patent 10,077,291 B2; US Patent 11,059,862 B2; US Patent Publication 20210115091 Al; the contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.

[0277] In some embodiments, the rAAV comprises a capsid protein from serotype AAV2.5. AAV2.5 is a chimera composed of AAV 2 with 5 amino acid substitutions from AAV 1 (which uses a-2,3- and a-2,6-N-linked sialic acid as major receptors). AAV2.5 contained four AAV1 substitutions (N705A, Q263A, V708A and T716N, AAV2 numbering) and one insertion of T265 from AAV1. See e.g., Korneyenkov et al., “Next Step in Gene Delivery: Modem Approaches and Further Perspectives of AAV Tropism Modification.” Pharmaceutics 2021 May, 13(5): 750; Hemphill et al. “Adeno-Associated Viral Vectors Show Serotype Specific Transduction of Equine Joint Tissue Explants and Cultured Monolayers,” Scientific Reports volume 4, Article number: 5861 (2014); the contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.
[0278] In some embodiments, the rAAV comprises a capsid protein from serotype AAVDJ. AAV-DJ is a highly recombinogenic hybrid vector created from experiments involving DNA shuffling of eight AAV serotypes. AAV-DJ is a chimera of AAV type 2 / type 8 / type 9. AAV2 and AAV8 are the closest parental vectors of AAV-DJ. It has been reported that mutations on the 137 / 251 / 503 ubiquitination or phosphorylation sites of the AAV2 or AAV8 capsid lead to dramatic enhancement of gene delivery (K137R / T251A / S503A). See e.g., Grimm et al. “In Vitro and In Vivo Gene Therapy Vector Evolution via Multispecies Interbreeding and Retargeting of Adeno-Associated Viruses,” J Virol. 2008 Jun; 82(12): 5887-5911; Mao et al. “Single point mutation in adeno-associated viral vectors -DJ capsid leads to improvement for gene delivery in vivo,” BMC Biotechnology volume 16, Article number: 1 (2016); the contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.

[0298] In some embodiments, the kidney-associated disorder is Cystinuria (e.g., Cystinuria A, Cystinuria B). Cystinuria is an inherited autosomal recessive disease characterized by high concentrations of the amino acid cystine in the urine, leading to the formation of cystine stones in the kidneys, ureters, and bladder. Cystinuria is a type of aminoaciduria. Cystine is a dimer of cysteines. Symptoms of polycystic kidney disease include, but are not limited to crystalluria (crystals in urine); aminoaciduria (urine containing abnormally high levels of amino acids, e.g., cystine); pain in the side or back (e.g., often on one side); pain while urinating; blood in the urine; sharp pain in the side or back; pain near the groin, pelvis, or abdomen; nausea and vomiting; flank pain; loin pain; recurrent abdominal pain; recurrent urinary tract infections; and / or fever.
[0299] In some embodiments, the transgene is SLC3A1 and / or SLC7A9. SLC3A1 and SLC7A9 are subunits of an amino acid transporter (the b0,+ transporter system) that functions to resorb cystine from the urine in the kidney tubules. In some embodiments, the kidney-associated disorder is Cystinuria A, and the transgene is SLC3A1. In some embodiments, the kidney-associated disorder is Cystinuria B, and the transgene is SLC7A9.
[0300] In some embodiments, the transgene comprises SEQ ID NO: 5, SEQ ID NO: 6, or a nucleic acid sequence that is at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, or at least 99% identical to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5, SEQ ID NO: 6, which maintains the same function when expressed as a protein (e.g., cystine transport), or a functional fragment thereof, or a codon-optimized version of the nucleic acid.

[0306] In some embodiments, the kidney-associated disorder is autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). ADPKD is an inherited condition that causes small fluid-filled sacs called cysts displacing normal renal tubules in the kidneys. Cysts can develop from any nephron segment, but the cysts most often form in the distal nephron (e.g., distal convoluted tubules) and the collecting duct (CD). Symptoms of polycystic kidney disease include, but are not limited to abdominal pain or tenderness, blood in the urine, excessive urination at night, flank pain on one or both sides, drowsiness, joint pain, nail abnormalities, high blood pressure, back or side pain, a feeling of fullness in the abdomen, enlarged liver, heart murmurs, and / or growths in the kidneys or abdomen. In some embodiments, the transgene is PKD1, PKD2, and / or GANAB. The PKD1 and PKD2 genes encode the proteins polycystin- 1 and polycystin-2, respectively. These two proteins interact to regulate cells in the kidneys and liver, are a part of the process to form tubular structures, and influence growth and fluid secretion function. Mutations of the PKD1 or PKD2 gene creates cells with abnormal functions and ultimately result in the cyst growth that is common in ADPKD. GANAB encodes the alpha subunit of glucosidase II and a member of the glycosyl hydrolase 31 family of proteins. The heterodimeric enzyme glucosidase II plays a role in protein folding and quality control by cleaving glucose residues from immature glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. Mutations in the GANAB gene can cause autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney and liver disease.
[0307] In some embodiments, the transgene comprises one of SEQ ID NOs: 9-10, or a nucleic acid sequence that is at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, or at least 99% identical to the sequence of one of SEQ ID NOs: 9-10, which maintains the same function when expressed as a protein (e.g., regulate kidney cells, influence formation of kidney tubular structures, and influence kidney fluid secretion function), or a functional fragment thereof, or a codon-optimized version of the nucleic acid.
