Early post-marketing safety signals of CRISPR-edited exagamglogene autotemcel (Casgevy) versus lentiviral betibeglogene autotemcel (Zynteglo): A faers disproportionality study, 2014–2025
(ASH 2025)
- "This first FAERS-based safety analysis of CRISPR-edited therapy suggests Casgevy may be associated with early post-infusion gastrointestinal/mucosal and bleeding events, while Zynteglo shows a broader haematologic and vascular signal profile, with isolated liver and immune AEs. These disproportionate reporting signals, although preliminary, support enhanced clinical vigilance, especially for mucosal toxicity and bleeding. Limitations include small case counts, underreporting biases in FAERS, absent exposure denominators, and potential misclassification from manual PT grouping."

An automated platform for lentiviral transduction for HSC gene therapy promotes fitness of hematopoietic stem cells combined with higher transduction efficiency
(ASH 2025)
- "Although therapies for HSC gene therapy have been recently approved (Zynteglo™, Lyfgenia™ and Casgevy®), still certain challenges remain associated with high costs, scalability and safety related to leukemic events. Notably, low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDL-R), the cellular receptor that serves for the recognition by the VSV glycoprotein, was accordingly upregulated in cells processed on the CliniMACS Prodigy. These results suggest that the CliniMACS Prodigy promotes higher stemness or better fitness of HSCs while simultaneously allowing for higher transduction efficiencies due to downregulation of immune related pathways and upregulation of cholesterol and sterol binding."

Accelerating access to gene therapy: Lessons from commercial implementation in sickle cell disease and transfusion-dependent thalassemia
(ASH 2025)
- "With >700 patient-years of follow-up in clinical trials, Zynteglo (approved Aug 2022 for thalassemia) and Lyfgenia (approvedDec 2023 for sickle cell disease) are now in real-world use in the United States. This real-world analysis is the first to characterize commercial gene therapy implementation,demonstrating scalable delivery and accelerated access over time. Cross-program learning andcentralized support enabled faster treatment across a national network. With published payer coveragefor >250M lives – without a single ultimate denial – these findings offer a functioning model for genetherapy implementation."

Rapid immune reconstitution in patients with transfusion-dependent thalassemia following betibeglogene autotemcel: A real-world experience
(ASH 2025)
- "These therapies use single-agent busulfanmyeloablative conditioning (Bu-MAC) and CD34+ selected autologous gene-modified hematopoietic stemcells (GM-HSCs) depleted of T cells. These findings suggest that patients with TDT treated with beti-cel are functionallylymphocyte replete 3 months after Bu-MAC and infusion of CD34+ selected GM-HSCs and remain sothereafter. Three months after infusion, patients possessed sufficient lymphocyte subset counts andPHA-induced T cell proliferation responses suggesting that patients may not require further monitoringor prophylaxis for viral reactivation. Patients also had B and T cell subsets associated with generatingprotective vaccine responses signaling potential vaccine-readiness at this time."

Improvement in Iron Burden in Patients with Transfusion-Dependent β-Thalassemia (TDT) Treated with Betibeglogene Autotemcel (Beti-cel) Gene Therapy: Up to 9 Years of Follow-up
(ASH 2023)
- P, P1/2, P3 | "Safety of beti-cel treatment largely reflected the known side effects of hematopoietic stem cell collection and the busulfan conditioning regimen. In this analysis with up to 9 years of follow up, patients treated with beti-cel who achieved TI also demonstrated sustained improvements in iron burden, and the majority of patients were able to stop chelation. Collectively, these results demonstrate the long-term durability and stability of response after beti-cel gene therapy in patients with TDT."

Curative Therapies for Hemophilias and Hemoglobinopathies in Adults: Immune, Gene, and Stem Cell Approaches in a Global Context.
(PubMed, Biomedicines)
- "Recent advances in immune-based therapeutics (e.g., emicizumab, concizumab, crizanlizumab), viral vector-mediated gene addition (e.g., Roctavian, Hemgenix), and gene-modified autologous stem cell therapies (e.g., Zynteglo, Casgevy) have ushered in a new era of disease-modifying and potentially curative interventions. Equitable access, particularly in regions bearing the highest disease burden, will require collaborative funding strategies, regional capacity building, and inclusive regulatory frameworks. This review summarizes the current landscape of curative therapy, outlines implementation barriers, and calls for coordinated international action to ensure that transformative care reaches all affected individuals worldwide."

MAXIMIZING SAFETY AND EFFICACY IN HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELLS GENE THERAPY
(EHA 2025)
- "Background: Although therapies for HSC gene therapy have been recently approved (Zynteglo™, Lyfgenia™ and Casgevy®), still certain challenges remain associated with high costs, scalability and safety related to leukemic events. Based on these results, we propose a combined strategy of transduction enhancers and the use of Baboon envelope pseudotyped LV on the automated CliniMACS Prodigy platform to achieve significantly higher transduction efficiencies and enhanced engraftment."

A Targeted Literature Review of Value-Based Agreements (VBAs) for Cell and Gene Therapies in the United States
(ISPOR 2025)
- "The therapies with VBAs in place included: Beqvez, Casgevy, Hemgenix, Kymriah, Luxturna, Lyfgenia, Roctavian, Vyjuvek, Zolgensma, and Zynteglo... In this review, multiple VBAs for CGTs were identified across multiple disease areas. Most payers did not publicly disclose which outcomes measures the VBAs were assessing. Of those that did, outcomes assessed could be sourced from routine patient visits and/or adjudicated claims, placing no additional burden on providers to collect data for the sole purpose of the VBA."

Post-Approval, Real-World Experience with Betibeglogene Autotemcel for Transfusion-Dependent Beta Thalassemia
(TCT-ASTCT-CIBMTR 2025)
- "Patients received beti-cel after conditioning with single-agent PK-adjusted busulfan over four days...He received eculizumab due to elevated sc5b-9 without other thrombotic microangiopathy criteria, eventually engrafting platelets with romiplostim support after 82 days... Our experience demonstrates consistent achievement of RBC transfusion independence in patients with TDT receiving commercial beti-cel. Patients experienced prolonged platelet engraftment time and high platelet transfusion requirements, which were associated with severe bleeding in patients with VOD or HLA Class I alloimmunization. Further studies will seek to mitigate bleeding complications by reducing VOD rates and to explore the impact of HLA Class I alloimmunization in patients receiving beti-cel for TDT."

Betibeglogene autotemcel gene therapy in patients with transfusion-dependent, severe genotype β-thalassaemia (HGB-212): a non-randomised, multicentre, single-arm, open-label, single-dose, phase 3 trial.
(PubMed, Lancet)
- P, P3 | "These data demonstrate that beti-cel can allow patients with genotypes that cause severe β-thalassaemia (β0/β0, β0/β+IVS-I-110, or β+IVS-I-110/β+IVS-I-110) to reach transfusion independence. Beti-cel offers the potential to attain near-normal haemoglobin levels for those with severe forms of TDT, and a potentially curative option without the risks and limitations of allogeneic HSPC transplantation. Patients are being followed up for a total of 15 years to assess the durability of transfusion independence and long-term safety profile of beti-cel."
