Overview
This is an open label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of β-globin Restored Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cells in ß-Thalassemia Major Patients
Description
We will recruit ß-thalassaemia major patients and collect their autologous hematopoietic stem cells, which will be modified with the LentiHBBT87Q system to restore β-globin expression. After conditioning, the autologous hematopoietic stem cells with restored β-globin will be reinfused to the patients and followed up for two years to collect data.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- 8-16 years old. Subject and/or subject's legal guardian fully understand and voluntarily sign informed consent;
- Clinically diagnosed as transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia major;
- With sufficient RBC infusion, subjects must maintain hemoglobin ≥9g/dL, serum ferritin threshold ≤ 3000 ng/mL and the liver iron overload mild or absent for at least 3 months before mobilization of hematopoietic stem cell;
- Follow the arrangements for treatment and regular medical checks within two years post-transplantation
Exclusion Criteria:
- The physical condition does not meet the requirements for hematopoietic stem cell mobilization and transplantation myeloablation;
- Received gene therapy and allogeneic HSCT in the past.
- Have an available HLA matched donor.
- Enrolling in another clinical trial.
- Other unsuitable conditions identified by doctors.
