Treatment of sickle cell disease by induction of mixed chimerism and immune tolerance using CD4+ T-depleted haploidentical blood stem cell transplant
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Haploidentical (half-match) T cell depleted blood stem cell transplant with a low-toxic conditioning regimen Indication Adult patients with severe sickle cell disease who are excluded from the potentially curative current standard stem cell transplant. Therapeutic Mechanism The proposed therapy is intended to achieve mixed chimerism and immune tolerance. Mixed chimerism is […]
A Phase 1/2 Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of ST-400 Autologous HSPC Transplant in Transfusion-dependent β-Thalassemia
Therapeutic Candidate or Device ST-400 is a gene-edited cell therapy candidate for patients with transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia Indication Transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia Therapeutic Mechanism ST-400 is intended to disrupt BCL11A erythroid enhancer in CD34+ HSPC resulting in an increase in fetal hemoglobin which can substitute for reduced or absent adult Hb. Therefore, treatment with ST-400 may potentially reduce […]
Gene Transfer for Artemis-Deficient Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Using a Lentiviral Vector to Transduce Autologous CD34 Hematopoietic Stem Cells
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Bone marrow stem cells that have been treated by inserting a normal Artemis gene into the DNA using a modified virus called a lentivirus. Indication Children with severe combined immunodeficiency or "bubble baby disease" due to a defective gene that makes a protein called Artemis Therapeutic Mechanism Stem cells from the […]
Antiviral Cellular Therapy for Enhancing T-cell Reconstitution Before or After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (ACES)
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Partially HLA-matched virus-specific T-cell therapy targeting cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, and adenovirus. Indication This study will treat persistent viral infections with CMV, EBV, and/or adenovirus in patients with immunodeficiency. Therapeutic Mechanism The goal of this study is to use banked virus-specific T-cell therapy in A) patients who have persistent viral infections after […]
Lentiviral Gene Therapy for Infants with X-linked Severe Combined Immunodeficiency using Autologous Bone Marrow Stem Cells and Busulfan Conditioning
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Bone marrow stem cells will be transduced with a lentiviral vector to deliver a normal copy of the gamma-chain gene to treat X-linked SCID. Indication x-linked severe combined immunodeficiency, a severe pediatric disorder in which children have multiple defects in their immune system. Therapeutic Mechanism The gene therapy will correct the […]
Efficacy and safety of cryopreserved autologous CD34+ HSC transduced with EFS lentiviral vector encoding for human ADA gene in ADA-SCID subjects
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) transduced with a lentiviral vector encoding the human ADA gene (or "OTL-101") Indication Adenosine Deaminase – Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (or ADA-SCID) Therapeutic Mechanism This project will lead to a License Application for OTL-101 as a treatment for ADA-SCID. The patient’s own stem cells ("autologous") are […]
