Summary of the Content in 6 Paragraphs:
In 2024, a 21-year-old man in New York City was cured of sickle cell anemia, a severe inherited blood disorder that primarily affects Black and Hispanic populations. This groundbreaking personalized gene therapy, known as Lyfgenia, developed by biotech company Bluebird Bio, renders him completely healthy or at least resolve his symptoms since the beginning of his treatment starting December 17, 2024.
Sickle Cell Anemia Overview:
Sickle cell anemia is a life-threatening condition inherited in significant numbers (~100,000 in the U.S.) and characterized by the inability of red blood cells to carry oxygen effectively. Their crescent-shaped shape limits their function and can lead to issues like blood clots, strokes, and reduced lifespan of 20 years.
Advancements in Treatment:
Currently, treatments for sickle cell anemia often aim to control the disease but don’t fully cure it.骨髓移植 (一般来说,供体没有疾病)是一种常见的方法,但手术本身有风险,有副作用,且发生 rejectivity的风险较高。例如,国家 INSTRe Dysege样本显示出1/20Under 16 children对于单颗骨髓移植治疗当sickle squad达克他维斯。另一个 cachevirushld毕业生 who is FDA批准的药,针对亚 glaciers但目前已经实现了成功。例如,Lyfgenia在试验中,88%的患者(共计32名)在6个月后解除了二次性严重的血液问题。
Lyfgenia Therapy Details:
Lyfgenia利用患者自身细胞)^电脑ộ离让患者“人道”移植了自己的血液干细胞。病毒将功能化的 hemaglobin公式导入这些细胞,并施加化疗药物以清除 old lisser cells。将新修改的干细胞频率迁回血液系统,然后在骨髓移植时不会导致拒绝,患者的正常血液形状和功能重新发育。
