Best Practices in Gene Therapy for Sickle Cell Disease and Transfusion-dependent β-Thalassemia
7 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
Sickle cell disease (SCD) and transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) are inherited blood disorders caused by pathogenic variants of the β-globin gene. Historically, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched donors has been the only curative option.
