ASH 2025 | Fixed-dose vs weight-based plerixafor in patients with SCD receiving BEAM-101 in the BEACON trial

Haydar Frangoul, MD, MS, Sarah Cannon Research Institute at TriStar Centennial Children’s Hospital, Nashville, TN, discusses an analysis from the ongoing BEACON study (NCT05456880), which evaluated the use of fixed-dose versus weight-based plerixafor dosing in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) receiving autologous CD34+ base-edited hematopoietic stem cells (BEAM-101). Dr Frangoul highlights that patients receiving fixed-dose plerixafor required fewer days and fewer cycles of apheresis due to more efficient mobilization and greater stem cell yield. He also reports on the early engraftment and efficacy data from the study. This interview took place at the 67th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in Orlando, FL.
