Abstract
Several unexpected fatalities in patients who received adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based gene therapies have recently occurred. These tragic events have cast a pall over the entire sector with some stakeholders suggesting that AAV is patently unsafe as a gene delivery platform and ought not to be pursued. This conclusion is not warranted.
