Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 1 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a single-dose, open-label study in pediatric participants with TDT. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous CRISPR-Cas9 modified CD34+ human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (hHSPCs) (CTX001).

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Prior hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT)

Other illness

  • Clinically significant and active bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic infection as determined by the investigator
    • Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.

Lab values

  • A willing and healthy 10/10 human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related donor is available per investigator's judgement

Other

  • Participants with associated α-thalassemia and \>1 alpha deletion, or alpha multiplications
  • Participants with sickle cell β-thalassemia variant

Who the study is looking for

  • Diagnosis of TDT as defined by:
    • Documented homozygous or compound heterozygous β-thalassemia including β-thalassemia/hemoglobin E (HbE). Participants can be enrolled based on historical data, but a confirmation of the genotype using the study central laboratory will be required before busulfan conditioning
    • History of at least 100 mL/kilograms (kg)/year of packed RBC transfusions in the prior 24 months before signing of consent (or the last rescreening for patients going through repeat screening) or, for participants initiating transfusion therapy \<24 months before signing of consent, requirement for packed RBC transfusion at least every 3 to 4 weeks for ≥6 months
  • Eligible for autologous stem cell transplant as per investigator's judgment.
