Immune dysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked (IPEX) syndrome is a rare primary immunodeficiency caused by inherited defects in the FOXP3 gene that impair regulatory T cells. IPEX syndrome can be cured by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from HLA-matched unrelated donors (MUD); however, the best conditioning prior to HSCT for IPEX syndrome is not known.    Here we report on a patient suffering from IPEX syndrome, including immune-mediated colitis and membranous nephropathy, without polyendocrinopathy, caused by a novel mutation in the Forkhead domain of the FOXP3 gene. The patient's symptoms resolved following MUD HSCT after myeloablative conditioning performed at 16 months of age. The patient is clinically well, 3 years after HSCT, with robust immune reconstitution and fully engrafted. The lack of extensive autoimmune damage might have contributed to the patient's favourable outcome following MUD HSCT with myeloablative conditioning.    Statement of novelty: We describe a novel mutation in the FOXP3 gene causing IPEX syndrome and the correction of IPEX syndrome with bone marrow transplant from a HLA-matched unrelated donor following myeloablative conditioning.
