Evaluation of Efficacy and Safety of a Single Dose of CTX001 in Participants With Transfusion-Dependent β-Thalassemia and Severe Sickle Cell Disease

A Phase 3b Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of a Single Dose of Autologous CRISPR Cas9 Modified CD34+ Human Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells (CTX001) in Subjects With Transfusion-Dependent β-Thalassemia or Severe Sickle Cell Disease

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a single-dose, open-label study in participants with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) or severe 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) using 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
  • History of untreated moyamoya syndrome or presence of moyamoya syndrome at screening
    • 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 TDT and SCD:
  • Participants with TDT:
  • Participants with associated α-thalassemia and \>1 alpha deletion, or alpha multiplications
  • Participants with sickle cell β-thalassemia variant
  • Participants with SCD:

Who the study is looking for

  • Participants with TDT and SCD:
  • Eligible for autologous stem cell transplant as per investigator's judgment.
  • Participants with TDT:
  • Diagnosis of TDT as defined by:
  • Documented homozygous β-thalassemia 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 milliliter (mL)/kilograms (kg)/year or 10 units/year of packed red blood cells (RBC) transfusions in the prior 2 years before signing the consent or the last rescreening for patients going through re-screening
  • Participants with SCD:
  • Diagnosis of severe SCD as defined by:
  • Documented SCD genotypes
  • History of at least two severe VOCs events per year for the previous two years prior to enrollment

Age in the registry: 12 years to 35 years · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
