About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Open Label Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Gene Therapy in Subjects With β-Thalassemia Major by Transplantation of Autologous CD34+Stem Cells Transduced With a Lentiviral Vector Encoding βA-T87Q-Globin

This is a Phase 1,open label,safety,and efficacy study in subjects with non-β0/β0 TDT β-thalassemia Major by transplanting BD211 drug product which is for autologous use only,via a single IV administration.

Read the detailed description

After collection of mobilised peripheral blood samples, the patient's autologous cells,enriched for CD34+ HSCs, undergo ex vivo transduction with lentiviral vector encoding βA-T87Q-globin to BD211 finished product,which is then infused intravenously into the patient after myeloablative busulfan conditioning to prepare bone marrow "niches" for engraftment of the HSCs.

After discharge, subjects will be followed monthly, at a minimum, for 6 months and thereafter every 3 months for the remainder of the 24 months post-transplant.

Evaluation will include Routine and special biological testing at regular intervals, collection of AEs and concomitant medications, and evaluation of disease specific biological and clinical parameters.

Subjects will then be enrolled in a long-term follow-up protocol with annual evaluations for an additional 13 years post-transplant.

The long-term follow-up study will focus on long-term safety, with an emphasis on integration site analysis, and long-term efficacy.

This study will end when the last subject completes the Month 24 visit or discontinues from the study.

Mobilization,harvest,transduction,conditioning,treatment,engraftmentExperimentalSubjects will participate in this study for a total of approximately 27 months, consisting of an up to 3 months pre-transplant period(consisting of a screening period followed by autologous cell harvest, followed by a waiting period during which the harvested cells are transduced and undergo release testing, followed by treatment with busulfan IV, and a single infusion of BD211 Drug Product) and a 24-month post-transplant evaluation period. Following completion of this study, all subjects will be asked to provided consent to participate in a follow-up study for another 13 years, which will focus on long-term safety, with an emphasis on integration site analysis, and long-term efficacy.

  7. Changes of liver iron burden from baseline

    Changes from baseline in iron burden by assessing liver iron content (mg Fe/g dry weight).

    Measured: Up to 24 months after engraftment.

  8. Changes of cardiac iron burden from baseline

    Changes from baseline in iron burden by assessing cardiac iron content using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) T2* value (milliseconds, ms).
