Recombinant adeno-associated viruses (rAAVs) have been tested in humans and other large mammals without adverse events. However, one study of mucopolysaccharidosis VII correction in mice showed repeated integration of rAAV in cells from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in theDlk1–Dio3locus, suggesting possible insertional mutagenesis. In contrast, another study found no association of rAAV integration with HCC, raising questions about the generality of associations between liver transformation and integration atDlk1–Dio3. Here we report that in rAAV-treated ornithine transcarbamylase (Otc)–deficient mice, four examples of integration sites inDlk1–Dio3could be detected in specimens from liver nodule/tumors, confirming previous studies of rAAV integration in theDlk1–Dio3locus in the setting of another murine model of metabolic disease. In one case, the integrated vector was verified to be present at about one copy per cell, consistent with clonal expansion. Another verified integration site in liver nodule/tumor tissue near theTax1bp1gene was also detected at about one copy per cell. TheDlk1–Dio3region has also been implicated in human HCC and so warrants careful monitoring in ongoing human clinical trials with rAAV vectors.
