About this trial

This is an open label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of β-globin Restored Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cells in ß-Thalassemia Major Patients

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

8-16 years old. Subject and/or subject's legal guardian fully understand and voluntarily sign informed consent;

Clinically diagnosed as transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia major;

With sufficient RBC infusion, subjects must maintain hemoglobin ≥9g/dL, serum ferritin threshold ≤ 3000 ng/mL and the liver iron overload mild or absent for at least 3 months before mobilization of hematopoietic stem cell;

Follow the arrangements for treatment and regular medical checks within two years post-transplantation

Disqualifiers

The physical condition does not meet the requirements for hematopoietic stem cell mobilization and transplantation myeloablation;

Received gene therapy and allogeneic HSCT in the past.

Have an available HLA matched donor.

Enrolling in another clinical trial.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Frequency and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)

The number and the percentage of adverse events related to transplantation in 100 days will be summarized according to NCI CTCAE 5.0

Time frame
0-100 days
2

Overall survival

Number of patients alive through the whole trial will be record

Time frame
0-24 months
3

Proportion of engraftment

Neutrophil count \[ANC\] \>=500 /mm3 for 3 consecutive days and platelet count \[PLT\] \>20,000/mm3 for7 consecutive days

Time frame
0-24 months
4

Replication competent lentivirus (RCL)

The percentage of RCL should be negative in the 24 months after transplant

Time frame
0-24 months

Secondary outcomes

1

The average Insertion copy number (VCN) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells

The average insertion copy number (VCN) should be ≥0.1 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells

Time frame
18-24 Months
2

The expression level of exogenous adult hemoglobin

Exogenous adult hemoglobin will be evaluated by globin chains and hemoglobin synthesis on peripheral blood by HPLC and the exogenous adult hemoglobin level is ≥2.0g/dL

Time frame
18-24 Months
3

Change from baseline in annualized frequency of packed RBC transfusions

Compare the annualized number of pRBC transfusions before gene therapy with the Month 18 and Month 24 period after transplant, the percentage change will be recorded

Time frame
18-24 Months
