Brief summary

This is an open label, multicenter, Phase 1/2 study in approximately eight adults with severe Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using BIVV003.

Detailed description

Subject participation in this study will be approximately 136 weeks. Enrolled subjects will be asked to participate in a separate long-term follow-up study to monitor the safety and efficacy of BIVV003 treatment for a total of 15 years post-transplant.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALPlerixafor

Plerixafor subcutaneous injection will be administered prior to apheresis.

DRUGBusulfan

Busulfan IV infusion will be administered as myeloablative conditioning therapy.

GENETICBIVV003

BIVV003 will be administered as an IV infusion following myeloablative conditioning with busulfan.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants With Successful EngraftmentUp to Day 42Successful engraftment is defined by absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to \>=500 cells/microliter (mL) for 3 consecutive days.
Percentage of Participants who are Alive at Post-transplantation Day 100Day 100The percentage of participants who are alive at post-transplantation Day 100 will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimate.
Percentage of Participants who are Alive at Post-transplantation Week 52Week 52The percentage of participants who are alive at post-transplantation Week 52 will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimate.
Percentage of Participants who are Alive at Post-transplantation Week 104Week 104The percentage of participants who are alive at post-transplantation Week 104 will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimate.
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)Up to Week 104An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.
Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Up to Week 104An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: Results in death, in the view of the Investigator, places the participant at immediate risk of death (a life-threatening event); however, this does not include an event that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might have caused death, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, results in a congenital anomaly/birth defect or is a medically important event.

This is a 57-item questionnaire with 8 questions per domain for assessing physical and mental well-being in participants with SCD. 57 questions are summed into a total score, which is transformed into an age specific normalized t-score with 50 representing normal, and lower scores representing increasing disability.

AEs not listed in the CTCAE Version 5.0 will be evaluated by: Grade 1=Mild, Grade 2=Moderate, Grade 3=Severe or medically significant but not immediately life threatening, Grade 4=Life-threatening consequences; Grade 5=Death.
Participants lymphocyte CountsAt Weeks 13 and 52Lymphocyte counts will be measured to assess reconstitution of immune function post-BIVV003 transplantation.
Participants Immunoglobulin levelsAt Weeks 13 and 52Immunoglobulin levels will be measured to assess reconstitution of immune function post-BIVV003 transplantation.
