CRISPR gene therapy: a Long-Term safety check for blood disease patients
NCT ID NCT04208529
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study follows 160 children and adults with beta-thalassemia or sickle cell disease who received a one-time treatment of their own CRISPR-edited stem cells (CTX001). The goal is to monitor long-term safety, including any new cancers or blood disorders, and to see how well the therapy works over time. Participants join after completing earlier studies, and there are no new exclusion criteria.
