Official title

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

Overview

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.

Interventions

  • Biological CTX001
    Administered by intravenous (IV) infusion following myeloablative conditioning with busulfan

Primary outcome measures

  • Fetal Hemoglobin (HbF) Concentration Over Time [Time frame: Up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • Total Hemoglobin (Hb) Concentration Over Time [Time frame: Up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
Secondary outcome measures (12)
  • TDT and SCD: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [Time frame: From Signing of Informed Consent up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • TDT and SCD: Proportion of Participants With Engraftment (First day of 3 Consecutive Measurements of Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) >=500 per Microliter [mcgL] on 3 Different Days) [Time frame: Within 42 Days After CTX001 Infusion]
  • TDT and SCD: Time to Engraftment [Time frame: Up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • TDT and SCD: Incidence of Transplant-Related Mortality (TRM) Within 100 Days After CTX001 Infusion [Time frame: Within 100 Days After CTX001 Infusion]
  • TDT and SCD: Incidence of TRM Within 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion [Time frame: Within 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • TDT and SCD: Incidence of All-cause Mortality [Time frame: From Signing of Informed Consent up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • TDT and SCD: Relative Reduction in Annualized Volume of RBC Transfusions [Time frame: From Day 60 up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • TDT and SCD: Proportion of Alleles With Intended Genetic Modification Present in Peripheral Blood Over Time [Time frame: Up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • TDT and SCD: Proportion of Alleles With Intended Genetic Modification Present in CD34+ Cells of the Bone Marrow Over Time [Time frame: Up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • TDT: Duration Transfusion Free in Participants [Time frame: Up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • SCD: Relative Reduction in Annualized Rate of Severe Vaso-Occlusive Crises (VOCs) [Time frame: From Baseline up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]
  • SCD: Relative Reduction in Annualized Rate of Inpatient Hospitalizations for Severe VOCs [Time frame: From Baseline up to 12 Months After CTX001 Infusion]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • 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

Exclusion criteria

  • Participants with TDT and SCD:
  • A willing and healthy 10/10 human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related donor is available per investigator's judgement
  • Prior hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT)
  • Clinically significant and active bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic infection as determined by the investigator
  • 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:
  • History of untreated moyamoya syndrome or presence of moyamoya syndrome at screening

Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
