简要总结
The objective of this study is to demonstrate whether high-dose plerixafor can effectively mobilize hematopoietic stem cells in patients with sickle cell disease. It will also learn about the safety of this drug in higher doses in these patients. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does high-dose plerixafor mobilize enough hematopoietic stem cells? What medical problems do participants have when taking high-dose plerixafor?
Participants will:
Undergo transfusion Take high-dose plerixafor Be submitted to stem cell collection by apheresis Visit the clinic 10 days after the procedure Be contacted by the research team 30 days after the procedure.
详细描述
Sickle cell disease (SCD), the most common monogenic disorder in the world, is currently considered a global public health problem, which underscores the need to develop curative therapies for this condition. Gene therapy has been emerging as a safe and effective curative therapeutic strategy, with the advantage of using autologous hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) that are collected from the patient, edited in the laboratory, and reinfused-a process known as ex vivo gene therapy. However, mobilizing and collecting HPCs in this population is challenging, both due to disease-related factors such as bone marrow inflammation, necrosis, and ineffective erythropoiesis, and because the quantity of HPCs required for gene therapy protocols is very high. Since the use of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is contraindicated in SCD, the CXCR4 inhibitor plerixafor has been validated in this population as a safe drug, although with variable effectiveness. In healthy volunteers, plerixafor has been tested at twice the usual dose, with a significant increase in mobilization efficacy. However, in the context of sickle cell disease, and even in other diseases, this approach has never been tested. Additionally, although plerixafor is already approved for commercial use for other conditions in Brazil, it has never been tested in patients with SCD in our country, whose genetic background is more ethnically admixed compared to populations in high-income countries. This project aims to assess the efficacy and safety of plerixafor in a population of Brazilian patients with SCD. To do so, 12 patients will be enrolled using an adaptive design model that will include 3 patients at a time. The primary endpoint will be the proportion of patients who achieve a CD34+ cell count after HPC collection > 5×10⁶/kg of body weight following a single dose of plerixafor at 480 mcg/kg. Secondary endpoints will evaluate safety, efficacy, preservation of cell potency, and a preliminary cost-effectiveness analysis. This study not only introduces an unprecedented approach but also validates findings from other studies in a genetically diverse population. Moreover, it brings to Brazil the expertise necessary for HPC mobilization in SCD, an essential step for the success of future clinical gene therapy protocols to be implemented based on ongoing preclinical studies in the country, with potential for incorporation into the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS).
