A Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of the LentiGlobin BB305 Drug Product in β-Thalassemia Major Participants

Completed · Phase 1/Phase 2

Conditions studied: β-thalassemia Major

In brief

This is a non-randomized, open label, multi-site, single-dose, phase 1/2 study in up to 18 participants (including at least 3 adolescents between 12 and 17 years of age, inclusive) with β-thalassemia major. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) using LentiGlobin BB305 Drug Product \[autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transduced with LentiGlobin BB305 lentiviral vector encoding the human βA-T87Q-globin gene\].
