Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of the production of lentiviral vectors (LV) for gene therapy. More particularly, the invention relates to a system to obtain the stable integration of a Self Inactivating (SIN) lentiviral transfer vector into a packaging cell line. The SIN lentiviral transfer vector is integrated using a DNA fragment containing the Inverted Terminal Repeats (ITR) of Adeno Associated Virus (AAV), thus obtaining the stable producer cell line for SIN lentiviral vectors.

Abstract: The present invention provides new stable packaging cell lines and producer cell lines as well as methods to obtain them, and a new method to produce lentiviral vectors using such cell lines. New methods and packaging cell lines of the invention are generated using a baculo-AAV hybrid system for stable expression of structural and regulatory lentiviral proteins, such system comprising a baculoviral backbone containing an integration cassette flanked by AAV ITR, in combination with a plasmid encoding rep protein. This system allows to obtain a stable integration of the structural and regulatory HIV-1 proteins gag/pol and rev. The system allows to obtain a first intermediate including only the structural and regulatory HIV proteins gag/pol and rev, to be used as starting point to obtain stable packaging cell lines as well as producer cell lines.

Abstract: The present invention provides a new semi-stable packaging cell line and a method to produce lentiviral vectors (LV), using the semi-stable packaging cell line. New methods and packaging cell lines of the invention are generated using a baculo-AAV hybrid system for stable expression of structural and regulatory lentiviral proteins, such system comprising a baculoviral backbone containing an integration cassette flanked by AAV ITRs, in combination with a plasmid encoding rep protein. This system allows to obtain a stable integration of the structural and regulatory HIV-1 proteins gag/pol and rev. The system allows to obtain a cell line including the structural and regulatory HIV proteins gag/pol and rev, to be used for a semi-stable LV production.
