The FDA presentation by Dr Gopa Raychaudhuri, "Facilitating Development of Gene Therapies for Rare Diseases," summarized all Gene Therapies approved by the US FDA. There were 19 approved gene therapies: 6 stem cell therapies, 6 T cell therapies, and 7 directly administered therapies.
Gene therapy therapies are reviewed and approved by FDA Center for Biologicals Evaluation and Research (CBER), especially the Office of Therapeutic Products (OTP) - Approved Cellular and Gene Therapy Products are listed here.
