| 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 {{w|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.<ref name="Gene Therapy 101: From The 1960s To Today"/>

This is a timeline of gene therapy, attempting to describe significant events in the development of the field.

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]
