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 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
