Efficacy Safety Study of Gene Therapy for Sickle Cell DiseaseSCD Using Autologous CD34+ Cells Transduced ex Vivo, Carrying a Corrected Globin Gene and a Silencing RNA.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of DREAM01, a gene therapy for Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). The therapy consists of transplanting autologous CD34+ cells transduced ex vivo with a bifunctional lentiviral vector expressing βAS3m-globin and an anti-βS miRNA. It aims to reduce or eliminate vaso-occlusive events and long-term organ damage in severe SCD patients lacking a Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) identical sibling donor.
