The 65-year-old is one of six people in the world to receive gene therapy for a【C1】______type of inherited eye disease【C2】______choroideremia(an eye disease). The first published【C3】______of the trial, released today, suggest that【C4】______people’s genes can stop the disease from causing blindness—and【C5】______sight in those whose vision has become【C6】______.
Choroideremia is caused by【C7】______in the CHM gene. In those who have the disease, a【C8】______of REP-1 means that cells in the eyes stop working and slowly begin to【C9】______causing blindness. Enter gene therapy, which uses a virus to insert a【C10】______copy of a gene into cells with a gene defect and could【C11】______be used to treat many genetic conditions. Robert MacLaren of the University of Oxford and his colleagues decided to see if it could【C12】______choroideremia. Starting two years ago with Wyatt, they【C13】______a virus carrying a corrective copy of the CHM gene into the eyes of people with choroideremia.

D、results
答案
D
解析
空格后的trial指的是前一句的gene therapy“基因疗法”,该疗法还只处于试验性阶段,本句是说该试验治疗表明……基因可以防止失明,这是一种结论性的判断,故应选D项results“结果”,The first published results of the trial指的是“该试验治疗首次公布的结果”。
