#Breaking: The European Commission approves CRISPR/Cas9 gene-edited treatment, co-developed with Vertex Pharmaceuticals, for #SickleCellDisease and #BetaThalassemia for the European Union. Learn more: bit.ly/3IifYkR
This is a very important point. We need more specialist Heamatologists for Sickle Cell Disease on a global scale. We welcome the FDA approval, but we need them to be approved in Europe and equally accessible for everyone!! Thank you @ASH_hematology for a great conference!
The approval of two gene therapies last week represent a big step forward in SCD research, but it still won’t be enough for most people with #SickleCell. The problem: we need more hematologists. #ASH23 Read @DocksDoc200's piece in STAT: loom.ly/FYSWhB4. #ConquerSCD

Our COO @LoraRuthW is present at the #ASH23 Annual meeting. Europe is eager & ready to see advancements in Sickle Cell treatment options, disease management and improving involvement in Research and clinical trials.
CASGEVY is the 1st FDA-approved #geneediting treatment for #sicklecell. Using CRISPR, Exa-cel targets the BCL11A gene, boosting fetal hemoglobin to ease symptoms. While more dialogue is required on access & affordability, it's a notable milestone for #SCD. rb.gy/s54omc
Great session on how sickle cell disease centres can get ready to provide genetic therapies @ASH_hematology Interesting and exciting times are ahead!!
#Breaking: The U.S. FDA approves our treatment for #SickleCellDisease. We are excited to make this treatment available to patients. Learn more: news.vrtx.com/news-releases/…
