• In LAD-I, mutations in the common chain (CD18) of the beta2-integrin family (ITGB2 gene) prevent expression of CD18/CD11 heterodimers on cell surface essential for cell migration and adhesion.
• Disorder characterized by recurring and ultimately fatal infections due to inability of leukocytes to leave bloodstream to get to sites of tissue infection
• Severe inflammatory complications include omphalitis, gingivitis and ulcerative skin lesions.
• Current Treatment Option: Allogeneic HSCT limited by availability of suitable donor, GvHD, infections, and mortality

Kaplan-Meier Survival Estimates by Neutrophil CD18 ExpressionLAD-I Disease Spectrum
Moderate:2-30%
CD18+ PMN
Severe: <2%
CD18+ PMNPMN = polymorphonuclear leukocytes
• Patients suffer from recurrent infections; fatal in majority• 60-75% with severe LAD-I
die prior to age 2• >50% with moderate LAD-I
die before age 40
LAD-I Clinical Prognosis
The grey diamond indicates the 39% survival to age 2 years for 66 evaluable patients with severe LAD-I not receiving HSCT
Patients with severe & moderate LAD-I not receiving allogeneic HSCT

Ex-vivo lentiviral vector gene therapy consists of autologousCD34+ cells transduced with a lentiviral vector (Chim-CD18-WPRELV) encoding for the CD18 (β-subunit) component of β2-integrin
RP-L201: Gene Therapy for LAD-I
• CD34+ cells are mobilized to PB with G-CSF and plerixafor• Cells are collected via apheresis• Following transduction & cryopreservation, TDM-Busulfan conditioning is
administered prior to infusion of RP-L201
Developed at CIEMAT, in partnership with UCL

RP-L201 LAD-I Clinical Trial and Outcome Measures1
1 https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03812263?cond=Leukocyte+Adhesion+Deficiency&rank=5
Trial Design – Non-Randomized Phase 1/2 Study
N=9 patients across Phase 1/2 global study w/US & EU centersPhase 1: Assess safety and preliminary efficacy (n=2)
Phase 2: Global study (U.S. and EU) w/ efficacy endpoints including overall survival (n=7)
Primary Outcomes • Phase 1:
• Safety & preliminary efficacy• Phase 2:
• Survival: proportion of patients alive at age 2 and at least 1-year post infusion (& not requiring alloHSCT)
• Safety
• Percentage of pts w/neutrophil CD18 expression at least 10% of normal
• Percentage of pts w/neutrophil VCN of at least 0.1 copies/cell at 6m post-rx
• Incidence and severity of infections• Improvement/normalization of
neutrophilia• Resolution (partial or complete) of any
underlying skin rash or periodontal abnormalities

• Severe LAD-I is a very rare, life-threatening PID with 60-75% mortality by age 2- < 2% CD18+ PMN expression in Severe LAD-I
• Allogeneic HSCT as a treatment option is limited by donor availability, significant GVHD, infections, and mortality
• First patient successfully treated with RP-L201, an ex-vivo LV gene therapy, with durable CD18+ PMN expression > 47% at 6 months, and visible signs of improvement in existing skin lesions- Infusion was well-tolerated with no safety issues- Results from second patient treatment pending
• Preliminary evidence demonstrates that RP-L201 enables ITGB2genetic correction with robust CD18+ PMN expression
Conclusions

• LAD-I patients have been identified globally for the gene therapy trial including in the US, Europe, Turkey, India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and the Middle East
• Active enrollment of severe LAD-I patients underway:
