This is a non-randomized, open label, multi-site, single dose, Phase 1/2 study in approximately 50 adults and adolescents with severe SCD. The study will evaluate hematopoietic stem cell and progenitor stem cell (collectively referred to as hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells or HSPCs) transplantation using lovo-cel.

Change From Baseline in Absolute Reticulocyte Count in Group C Participants
Reticulocytes are immature RBCs that develop in the bone marrow and circulate in the bloodstream for about a day before developing into mature RBCs. Due to the loss of mature RBCs during hemolysis, there is usually a high demand to produce new RBCs in subjects with SCD, resulting in higher than normal absolute reticulocyte counts. For this outcome Baseline is the first assessment on or after Informed Consent but before initiation of stem cell collection.
Time frame: Baseline, Month 12 and Month 24
Change From Baseline in Percent (%) Reticulocyte/Erythrocytes in Group C Participants
Reticulocytes are immature RBCs that develop in the bone marrow and circulate in the bloodstream for about a day before developing into mature RBCs. The fraction of reticulocytes/erythrocytes in the blood is normally 0.5% to 2.5%, and is increased when there is peripheral hemolytic anemia. Due to the loss of mature RBCs during hemolysis, there is usually a high demand to produce new RBCs in subjects with SCD, resulting in higher than normal reticulocyte counts. For this outcome, Baseline is the first assessment on or after Informed Consent but before initiation of stem cell collection.

Change From Baseline in Cardiac T2* on MRI in Group C Participants
Particulate intracellular iron causes shortening of the magnetic resonance relaxation parameter T2 due to microscopic magnetic field inhomogeneity. A myocardial T2 value of 40 msec, which equates to 0.50 mg/g of dry weight iron has widely been used as the normal mean. Myocardial T2. Values below 20 msec are considered abnormal, and values below 10 msec indicate high risk of cardiac morbidity and mortality.

If no records at screening, the last assessment prior to Informed Consent was used. Note: while data are provided for this outcome measure, the results for this outcome are not anticipated to be fully mature until extended participant long-term follow-up in Study LTF-307 has been achieved. The results presented below should be interpreted in that context.
