EMA, the European Drug Regulator Publishes Reflection paper on Quality, Non-Clinical and Clinical Issues related to the Development of Recombinant Adeno-Associated Viral Vectors

Recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vectors are derived from the single stranded DNA virus adeno-associated virus which belongs to the genus dependovirus within the Parvoviridae family. As the name suggests the wild type virus is incapable of independent replication and relies on co-infection of a helper virus to enable a lytic replication cycle (Gonclaves, 2005). Adenovirus (Ad), herpes simplex virus (HSV), pseudorabies virus (PrV) and human papilloma virus (HPV) are known to support wild type AAV replication.
