Summary
This trial is testing a new gene therapy for people with Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency, a rare blood disorder. The goal is to find out if the therapy is safe.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency (PKD) who are between 8-50 years old, depending on enrollment phase. They must have a history of multiple blood transfusions and low hemoglobin levels despite treatment like splenectomy. Participants need to be in good health regarding heart, lung, kidney, and liver function.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing RP-L301, a gene therapy aimed at treating PKD. It's an early-phase study focusing on the safety of this new treatment where all participants receive the intervention without any comparison group.
What are the potential side effects?
As it's an early-stage trial for gene therapy, specific side effects aren't listed but may include reactions related to the body’s acceptance of new genes and general risks associated with bone marrow procedures.
