Clinical Trial Summary

This is a single-arm, multi-site, single-dose, Phase 1/2 study to assess ST-400 in 6 subjects with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) who are ≥18 and ≤40 years of age. ST-400 is a type of investigational therapy that consists of gene edited cells. ST-400 is composed of the patient's own blood stem cells which are genetically modified in the laboratory using Sangamo's zinc finger nuclease (ZFN) technology to disrupt a precise and specific sequence of the enhancer of the BCL11A gene (which normally suppresses fetal hemoglobin production in erythrocytes). This process is intended to boost fetal hemoglobin (HbF), which can substitute for reduced or absent adult (defective) hemoglobin. ST-400 is then infused back into the patient after receiving conditioning chemotherapy to make room for the new cells in the bone marrow, with the aim of producing new erythrocytes with increased amounts of HbF. The primary objective is to understand safety and tolerability of ST-400, and secondary objectives are to assess the effects on HbF levels and transfusion requirements.

Description:

Once consented, study participants will progress through the following stages: - Screening: in-person visit at the study site to confirm eligibility for proceeding - Collection: autologous (self) blood stem cells are harvested at the study site, also known as apheresis - Manufacturing of ST-400: no study participant activities expected - Infusion: conditioning chemotherapy, followed by infusion of ST-400, occurs at the study site - Follow-up: follow up at the study site to monitor for safety and effectiveness of the study

Secondary	Clinical Laboratory Measurements of Percent (%) HbF	Change from baseline percent (%) HbF [Time Frame: Up to 156 weeks after ST-400 infusion]	Baseline, Weeks 26, 52, and 156 after ST-400 infusion
Secondary	Annualized Frequency of Packed RBC Transfusions	Calculation of annualized frequency and volume of packed red blood cell (PRBC) transfusions after ST-400 infusion transfusion support in the 2 years prior to screening	From Baseline (2 years prior to screening/consent), to ST-400 Infusion (Day 0), after hematopoietic reconstitution and up to 156 weeks (post ST-400 infusion)
Secondary	Annualized Volume (mL) of Packed RBC Transfusions	Historical baseline defined as transfusion support in the 2 years prior to screening.
