Big picture
Time period | Development summary |
---|---|
1960s | Gene therapy as a concept is first introduced in the 1960s. Scientists are able to incorporate functional DNA inside human cells in vivo as early as 1961.[1] |
By the late 1960s and early 1970s, gene therapy becomes the subject of an increasing number of articles and meetings.[2] | |
1980s | As the science of genetics advances throughout the decade, gene therapy gains an established foothold in the minds of medical scientists as a promising approach to treatments for specific diseases.[3] |
1990s | The decade brings further innovations, such as the first use of hematopoietic stem cells as vectors to deliver corrective genes. However, the death of Jesse Gelsinger in 1999, who dies following a major immune response to a vector used in clinical trial, has a major negative impact on the field of gene therapy.[1] |
2010s | Gene therapy is introduced in the European market first, and later in the United States.[1] |
