Brief Summary:
This study is evaluating a genome-edited, autologous, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) product - OTQ923 to reduce the biologic activity of BCL11A, increasing fetal hemoglobin (HbF) and reducing complications of sickle cell disease.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of participants with adverse events [ Time Frame: 24 MONTHS ]

    The primary objectives are:

    • safety and tolerability of genome-edited hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in subjects with sickle cell disease.
    • time to engraftment
    • fetal hemoglobin (HbF) expression

  2. Number of participants with fetal hemoglobin expression [ Time Frame: 24 MONTHS ]
    Quantity - fetal hemoglobin (HbF) expression after HSCT


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Durability of hematologic engraftment [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    To assess the durability of hematologic engraftment, HbF expression and edited WBC and bone marrow cells

  2. Number of participants with treatment induced anti-Cas9 humoral and cellular immunogenicity [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    To evaluate presence of pre-existing or treatment induced anti-Cas9 humoral and cellular immunogenicity

  3. Overall Survival [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    Overall survival is defined as the time from date of start of treatment to date of death to any cause

  4. Evaluation of effect on patient-reported outcomes from baseline and post-HSCT with age appropriate patient reported measures [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    Determine health status following instruments ASCQ-ME emotional impact

  5. Number of participants with change from baseline of annualized VOC rate by 65% [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    Annualized VOC rate

  6. Number of participants with change from baseline of annualized SCD complications (aggregate of VOC, ACS, priapism and stroke) and if relevant, rate of transfusion by 65% [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    Annualized VOC rate

  7. Evaluation of effect on patient-reported outcomes from baseline and post-HSCT with age appropriate patient reported measures [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    Determine health status following instruments PROMIS fatique

  8. Evaluation of effect on patient-reported outcomes from baseline and post-HSCT with age appropriate patient reported measures [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    Determine health status following instruments PROMIS physical functioning

  9. Evaluation of effect on patient-reported outcomes from baseline and post-HSCT with age appropriate patient reported measures [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    Determine health status following instruments ASCQ-ME sleep impact

  10. Evaluation of effect on patient-reported outcomes from baseline and post-HSCT with age appropriate patient reported measures [ Time Frame: 24 months ]
    Determine health status following instruments ASCQ-ME pain impact
