Abstract
Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene therapies are in clinical development for haemophilia and other genetic diseases. Since the recombinant AAV genome primarily remains episomal, it provides the opportunity for long-term expression in tissues that are not proliferating and reduces the safety concerns compared with integrating viral vectors. However, AAV integration events are detected at a low frequency. Preclinical studies in mouse models have reported hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after systemic AAV administration in some settings, though this has not been reported in large animal models. The risk of HCC or other cancers after AAV gene therapy in clinical studies thus remains theoretical. Potential risk factors for HCC after gene therapy are beginning to be elucidated through animal studies, but their relevance to human studies remains unknown. Studies to investigate the factors that may influence the risk of oncogenesis as well as detailed investigation of cases of cancer in AAV gene therapy patients will be important to define the potential risk of AAV genotoxicity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION After decades of stumbling clinical development, the first gene therapies for haemophilia A and B have been commercialized and have normalized factor (F)VIII and factor (F)IX levels in some individuals in the long term. Several other clinical programs testing adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector gene therapy are at various stages of clinical testing. DISCUSSION Multiyear follow-up in phase 1/2 and 3 studies showed long-term and sometimes curative but widely variable and unpredictable efficacy. Liver toxicities, mostly low-grade, occur in the 1st year in at least some individuals in all haemophilia A and B trials and are poorly understood. Wide variability and unpredictability of outcome and slow decline of FVIII levels are a major disadvantage because immune responses to AAV vectors preclude repeat dosing, which otherwise could improve suboptimal or restore declining expression, while overexpression may predispose to thrombosis. Long-term safety outcomes will need lifelong monitoring because AAV vectors infused at high doses integrate into chromosomes at rates that raise questions about potential oncogenicity and necessitate vigilance. Alternative gene transfer systems employing gene editing and/or non-viral vectors are under development and promise to overcome some limitations of the current state of the art for both haemophilia A and B. CONCLUSIONS AAV gene therapies for haemophilia have now become new treatment options but not universal cures. AAV is a powerful but imperfect gene transfer platform. Biobetter FVIII transgenes may help solve some problems plaguing gene therapy for haemophilia A. Addressing variability and unpredictability of efficacy, and delivery of gene therapy to ineligible patient subgroups may require different gene transfer systems, most of which are not ready for clinical translation yet but bring innovations needed to overcome the current limitations of gene therapy.

Abstract
Adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors have traditionally been viewed as predominantly nonintegrating, with limited concerns for oncogenesis. However, accumulating preclinical data have shown that AAV vectors integrate more often than previously appreciated, with the potential for genotoxicity. To understand the consequences of AAV vector integration, vigilance for rare genotoxic events after vector administration is essential. Here, we investigate the development of multicentric lymphoma in a privately owned dog, PC9, with severe hemophilia A that was treated with an AAV8 vector encapsidating a B domain-deleted canine coagulation F8 gene. PC9 developed an aggressive B cell lineage multicentric lymphoma 3.5 years after AAV treatment. Postmortem analysis of the liver, spleen, and lymph nodes showed the expected biodistribution of the AAV genome. Integration events were found both in PC9 and a second privately owned hemophilia A dog treated similarly with canine F8 gene transfer, which died of a bleeding event without evidence of malignancy. However, we found no evidence of expanded clones harboring a single integration event, indicating that AAV genome integrations were unlikely to have contributed to PC9's cancer. These findings suggest AAV integrations occur but are mostly not genotoxic and support the safety profile of AAV gene therapy.

Abstract
Tissue biopsy is essential for NSCLC diagnosis and treatment management. Over the past decades, liquid biopsy has proven to be a powerful tool in clinical oncology, isolating tumor-derived entities from the blood. Liquid biopsy permits several advantages over tissue biopsy: it is non-invasive, and it should provide a better view of tumor heterogeneity, gene alterations, and clonal evolution. Consequentially, liquid biopsy has gained attention as a cancer biomarker tool, with growing clinical applications in NSCLC. In the era of precision medicine based on molecular typing, non-invasive genotyping methods became increasingly important due to the great number of oncogene drivers and the small tissue specimen often available. In our work, we comprehensively reviewed established and emerging applications of liquid biopsy in NSCLC. We made an excursus on laboratory analysis methods and the applications of liquid biopsy either in early or metastatic NSCLC disease settings. We deeply reviewed current data and future perspectives regarding screening, minimal residual disease, micrometastasis detection, and their implication in adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy management. Moreover, we reviewed liquid biopsy diagnostic utility in the absence of tissue biopsy and its role in monitoring treatment response and emerging resistance in metastatic NSCLC treated with target therapy and immuno-therapy.

Abstract
In cell and gene therapy, achieving the stable engraftment of an abundant and highly polyclonal population of gene-corrected cells is one of the key factors to ensure the successful and safe treatment of patients. Because integrative vectors have been associated with possible risks of insertional mutagenesis leading to clonal dominance, monitoring the relative abundance of individual vector insertion sites in patients' blood cells has become an important safety assessment, particularly in hematopoietic stem cell-based therapies. Clinical studies often express clonal diversity using various metrics. One of the most commonly used is the Shannon index of entropy. However, this index aggregates two distinct aspects of diversity, the number of unique species and their relative abundance. This property hampers the comparison of samples with different richness. This prompted us to reanalyze published datasets and to model the properties of various indices as applied to the evaluation of clonal diversity in gene therapy. A normalized version of the Shannon index, such as Pielou's index, or Simpson's probability index is robust and useful to compare sample evenness between patients and trials. Clinically meaningful standard values for clonal diversity are herein proposed to facilitate the use of vector insertion site analyses in genomic medicine practice.

Abstract
Targeting transgene integration into a safe genomic locus would be very important for gene therapy. We have generated lentivirus vectors containing the ribosomal RNA-recognising I-PpoI endonuclease fused to viral integrase, and transgene cassettes with target site homology arms to enhance insertion targeting. These new vectors were characterised with respect to the persistence of transgene expression, insertion targeting efficiency and chromosomal integrity of the transduced cells. The aim was to find an optimally safe and effective vector for human gene therapy. Fusion protein vectors with high endonuclease activity were the most effective in the accurate targeting of transgene insertion. The homology construct increased the insertion targeting efficiency to 28% in MRC-5 cells. However, karyotyping analysis showed that the high endonuclease activity induced the formation of derivative chromosomes in as many as 24% of the analysed primary T lymphocytes. The persistence of transgene expression was excellent in homology arm-containing fusion protein vectors with reduced endonuclease activity, and these fusion proteins did not cause any detectable chromosomal rearrangements attributable to the endonuclease activity. We thus conclude that instead of the fusion protein vectors that carry a highly active endonuclease, our vectors with the ability to tether the lentivirus preintegration complex to benign loci in the genome without high ribosomal DNA cleavage activity are better suited for lentivirus-based gene therapy applications.

Abstract
Longitudinal clonal tracking studies based on high-throughput sequencing technologies supported safety and long-term efficacy and unraveled hematopoietic reconstitution in many gene therapy applications with unprecedented resolution. However, monitoring patients over a decade-long follow-up entails a constant increase of large data volume with the emergence of critical computational challenges, unfortunately not addressed by currently available tools. Here we present ISAnalytics, a new R package for comprehensive and high-throughput clonal tracking studies using vector integration sites as markers of cellular identity. Once identified the clones externally from ISAnalytics and imported in the package, a wide range of implemented functionalities are available to users for assessing the safety and long-term efficacy of the treatment, here described in a clinical trial use case for Hurler disease, and for supporting hematopoietic stem cell biology in vivo with longitudinal analysis of clones over time, proliferation and differentiation. ISAnalytics is conceived to be metadata-driven, enabling users to focus on biological questions and hypotheses rather than on computational aspects. ISAnalytics can be fully integrated within laboratory workflows and standard procedures. Moreover, ISAnalytics is designed with efficient and scalable data structures, benchmarked with previous methods, and grants reproducibility and full analytical control through interactive web-reports and a module with Shiny interface. The implemented functionalities are flexible for all viral vector-based clonal tracking applications as well as genetic barcoding or cancer immunotherapies.

Abstract
On August 18, 2021, the American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy (ASGCT) hosted a virtual roundtable on adeno-associated virus (AAV) integration, featuring leading experts in preclinical and clinical AAV gene therapy, to further contextualize and understand this phenomenon. Recombinant AAV (rAAV) vectors are used to develop therapies for many conditions given their ability to transduce multiple cell types, resulting in long-term expression of transgenes. Although most rAAV DNA typically remains episomal, some rAAV DNA becomes integrated into genomic DNA at a low frequency, and rAAV insertional mutagenesis has been shown to lead to tumorigenesis in neonatal mice. Currently, the risk of rAAV-mediated oncogenesis in humans is theoretical because no confirmed genotoxic events have been reported to date. However, because insertional mutagenesis has been reported in a small number of murine studies, there is a need to characterize this genotoxicity to inform research, regulatory needs, and patient care. The purpose of this white paper is to review the evidence of rAAV-related host genome integration in animal models and possible risks of insertional mutagenesis in patients. In addition, technical considerations, regulatory guidance, and bioethics are discussed.
