Bernard Soulier Syndrome (BSS) is an inherited bleeding disorder characterized by macrothrombocytopenia. Platelet transfusion is used for the management of bleeding but repeated transfusion often results in allo-immunization. We have recently shown phenotypic correction of murine BSS (GPIbαnull) using lethal radiation conditioning followed by hematopoietic lentivirus-mediated gene transfer. For application of gene therapy to treatment of human patients, it is important to minimize treatment-related side effects. The objective of this study is to model a clinically relevant non-myeloablative hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation strategy. Using transplantation of bone marrow (BM) HSCs from transgenic mice that express hGPIbα (hGPIbαtg+/+), 1) determine the percentage of hGPIbαtg+/+ HSCs required for therapeutic benefit, 2) evaluate the efficacy of non-myeloablative conditioning using busulfan, and 3) test the ability of anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) to prevent/reduce undesirable immune responses. Transplantation of 10–20% hGPIbαtg+/+ BM HSCs mixed with GPIbαnull BM HSCs into irradiated GPIbαnull mice was sufficient to correct bleeding time (n = 5). Transplantation of hGPIbαtg+/+ BM HSCs into busulfan-conditioned GPIbαnull mice corrected bleeding time in 21 of 27 recipients. Antibody response to hGPIbα and immune-mediated thrombocytopenia was documented in 8 of 27 recipients, suggesting immunogenicity of hGPIbα in busulfan-conditioned GPIbαnull mice. However, these antibodies disappeared without treatment within 30 weeks after transplantation. A combination of busulfan plus ATG conditioning successfully prevented antibody development and significantly increased therapeutic engraftment. A conditioning regimen of busulfan in combination with ATG could potentially be utilized in non-myeloablative autologous gene therapy in human BSS.
