Indications for Stem Cell Treatment

This segment includes all areas of therapeutic stem cell R&D outside the treatment of cancers, the heart and vasculature, and the CNS and eyes. This leaves a large range of disease targets. Some are more plausible than others, and only three are addressed by formally-approved stem cell therapies: various non-cancerous blood disorders treated by HSCT; osteobiologics; and tissue damage as a complication of Crohn’s disease. However, the potential for stem cells extends into many other indications.

Curing Orphan Diseases with HSCT

The indications for HSCT outside oncology are broad and varied; for the most part, these are orphan diseases with small patient populations.

In rare cases, HSCT can cure these diseases: for example, HSCs from HLA-matched sibling donors can cure sickle cell disease, and, more problematically, beta-thalassemia.

Genetically-Modified HSCs May Cure HIV, Among Other Diseases

One likely future extension of this principle will be autologous stem cell gene therapy: autologous HSCs will be modified to correct a genetic condition, then reimplanted. Studies have shown that Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (an immunodeficiency disorder) can be cured by autologous HSCT if the HSCs are first virally modified to express the correct gene. Bluebird Bio has two clinical-stage programmes of this sort, addressing adrenoleukodystrophy and beta-thalassemia (they are not covered here since this is primarily a gene therapy platform; however, the distinction is somewhat subjective).
