flag Motixafortide successfully mobilized stem cells in 90% of sickle cell patients, including those who failed prior treatment, advancing gene therapy access.

flag Ayrmid, Ltd. reported at the 2025 American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting that motixafortide, a long-acting CXCR4 inhibitor, successfully mobilized enough hematopoietic stem cells in 90% of 10 sickle cell disease patients for gene therapy, including 86% of those who previously failed plerixafor. flag Two patients have undergone successful transplants, and manufacturing continues for others. flag The findings suggest motixafortide could overcome a major barrier to gene therapy access, potentially expanding treatment eligibility. flag It is already FDA-approved for multiple myeloma but not yet for sickle cell disease.
