Gene therapy is the insertion of genes into an individual's cells and tissues to alter the person's DNA. Gene therapy allows for the treatment of genetic disorders by replacing a defective mutant allele with a functional one using a carrier, also known as a vector, to deliver the therapeutic gene to the patient's target cells. Currently, the most common type of vectors are viruses that have been genetically altered to carry normal human DNA.

Although the technology is still in its infancy, it has been used with some success. Antisense therapy is not strictly a form of gene therapy, but is a genetically-mediated therapy and is often considered together with other methods.
- Gene therapy describes the pharmaceutical use of DNA, which directly affects the patient's cells. It is often used to treat genetic conditions by delivering DNA that contains a gene that is missing in the patient. Once delivered, the "foreign" DNA is used by the patient's cells to produce any missing proteins.

- Gene therapy describes the pharmaceutical use of DNA, which directly affects the patient's cells. It is often used to treat genetic conditions by delivering DNA that contains a gene that is missing in the patient. Once delivered, the "foreign" DNA is used by the patient's cells to produce any missing proteins. Originally conceived in 1972, it was not tested experimentally until the 1990s. Even then, it did not appear to provide meaningful results. However, since 2006, many forms of gene therapy have shown great promise in clinical trials and promise new treatments for diseases ranging from hemophilia to Parkinson's disease.
