About this trial
This is a single center, non-randomized, open label, single-dose study in subjects with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous CRISPR-Cas9 modified CD34+ human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (hHSPCs) (BRL-101)
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Subject (or their legally authorized representative or guardian) will sign and date an informed consent form (ICF) and, where applicable, an assent form.
Subjects 3 to 35 years of age, inclusive, on the date of informed consent.
Clinically confirmed severe SCD, genotypes include: βS/βS, βS/β + or βS/β0. Severe SCD is defined as having at least 2 VOC events per year during the 2 years prior to screening and requiring appropriate supportive care, including a pain management program, HU therapy (if indicated).
Karnofsky performance status of ≥80% for subjects ≥16 years of age. Lansky performance status of ≥80% for subjects <16 years of age (see Appendix 1 and 2).
Disqualifiers
Known contraindications, intolerance, or hypersensitivity to hematopoietic stem cell mobilizers, busulfan injection, or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or study drug-related components.
Eligible for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and have found HLA-identical donors.
Prior allo-HSCT, gene therapy or gene editing therapy.
Clinically significant and active bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic infection as determined by the investigator.
