One-Time gene edit aims to cure devastating blood diseases

NCT ID NCT06647979

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing a one-time gene editing treatment for people with severe sickle cell disease or beta-thalassemia. Doctors take a patient's own blood stem cells, edit a specific gene to boost healthy fetal hemoglobin, and return the cells after chemotherapy. The goal is to create a lasting cure by fixing the genetic cause of these painful and life-limiting conditions.
