Summary

This trial will test whether gene therapy can help patients with Fanconi anemia, subtype A by correcting their hematopoietic stem cells ex vivo and then infusing them back into the patient.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with Fanconi anemia subtype A, confirmed by a specific blood test. Participants must be at least 1 year old and weigh over 8 kg, have certain levels of blood cells, and women who can bear children must use effective contraception. People with stable or improving blood counts due to mosaicism, other serious health issues, pregnant or breastfeeding women, those with suitable sibling donors or current cancer are excluded.
What is being tested?
The study tests RP-L102 gene therapy in Fanconi anemia subtype A patients. It involves taking the patient's own stem cells from their blood, adding a correct version of the FANCA gene outside the body using a virus as a carrier, then infusing these corrected cells back into the patient to help prevent bone marrow failure.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects aren't specified here but may include reactions related to stem cell infusion such as fever and chills; immune responses against modified cells; discomfort at injection sites; and risks associated with lentiviral vectors like insertional mutagenesis.
