Standard of Care Comparative Arm of Phase 1/2 Gene Therapy Trial DREPAMIR" in Severe Sickle Cell Disease Patients

Korábbi kezelés

• Patients who have already been treated with gene therapy or BMT
• Two alpha deletions (risk of alpha-thalassemia after gene therapy)
  • Evaluations within 6 months prior to screening visit:
• Any current cancer or prior history of a malignant disease, with the exception of curatively treated non-melanoma skin cancer
• Patients who failed previous HSCT
• Participation in another clinical study with an investigational drug within 30 days of screening

Más betegség

• Stroke with significant CNS sequelae i.e., Rankin >2

• Confirmed pulmonary hypertension defined by a right heart catheterization (PAPm >25 mmHg). Right heart catheterization is required if tricuspid regurgitation velocity >2.8m/s on cardiac echocardiograph OR >2.5m/s with an abnormal Brain Natriuretic Peptide dosage or an important decrease in transcutaneous Hb O2 saturation during the 6 minutes' walk test.
• Seropositivity for HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), HCV (Hepatitis C Virus), HTLV-1 (Human T-Lymphotropic Virus), or active Hepatitis B Virus, or active infection by CMV or parvovirus B19, based on positive blood PCR.
• Immediate family member with an established or suspected Familial Cancer Syndrome
• Diagnosis of significant psychiatric disorder of the subject that could seriously impede the ability to participate in the study
• Any clinically significant active infection
• Any condition, based on perspective of the medical monitor and treating investigator, which may lead to increased safety risk or inability to comply with the protocol.

Laborértékek

• Hematologic evaluation: Leukopenia (WBC <3,000/µL) or neutropenia (ANC <1,000/µL) or thrombocytopenia (platelet count <100,000/µL) within 90 days prior to mobilization or harvest (not due to an erytrapheresis procedure or possible acute viral infection)
• PT/INR or PTT >1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) or clinically significant bleeding disorder
• ALT or AST >3 times ULN
• Measured GFR <60ml/min/1.73 m²
• Cardiac evaluation: LVEF <40% by cardiac echocardiogram or by MUGA scan or clinically significant ECG abnormalities
