Globin gene addition Addition of γ-globin gene (ARU-1801) Aruvant Phase 1/2; not recruiting NCT02186418 As of November, 2021, four patients have been infused; three (75%) patients with >12 months follow-up had reduced or absent VOCs
Globin gene addition Addition of modified β-globin gene, (bAS3; DREPAGLOBE) Assistance Publique—Hôpitaux de Paris Phase 1/2; not recruiting NCT03964792 No clinical trial results posted yet
Globin gene addition Addition of modified β-globin gene (bAS3-FB) University of California, Los Angeles Phase 1; recruiting NCT02247843 No clinical trial results posted yet
HbF induction shRNA knockdown of BCL11A gene (BCH-BB694) Boston Children’s Hospital Phase 2; recruiting NCT03282656 and NCT05353647 Ten patients infused by November, 2022, with a median duration of follow-up of 30·5 months (range 2–50); nine (90%) of ten patients had reduced or absent VOCs

VOCs=vaso-occlusive crises. shRNA=short hairpin RNA.
