This webinar will focus on recent research in the use of hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) and gene therapy as curative therapies for sickle cell disease (SCD), convening a panel of experts to explore patient eligibility, perceptions, and overcoming barriers to care. Many patients and providers alike are unfamiliar with HCT as a potential curative option for SCD patients, and there are many misperceptions as gene therapy gains more public attention. Demystifying transplant among SCD providers and elucidating inclusion and exclusion criteria for curative therapies can help physicians and families make informed treatment decisions. Encouraging discussion about HCT and gene therapy’s role in the treatment of SCD can help ensure that patients and providers can appropriately weigh their options, increasing access to curative care when appropriate.
