The Statistics and Data Management Center (SDMC) of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) Comprehensive Sickle Cell Centers (CSCC) Program was charged in 2003 with establishing a database of clinical, quality of life, and outcomes data to support development of multi-center research on SCD. A committee composed of representatives from 5 of the 10 participating clinical centers (C-Data Protocol Committee) assisted the SDMC in developing a protocol for this Collaborative Data Project (C-Data). The SDMC and C-Data Protocol Committee created a detailed case report form (CRF) designed to obtain comprehensive clinical, surgical, hospitalization, and laboratory data from medical record review to focus data collection on those features considered most important and most useful in identifying potential subjects for future trials. However, the lack of standard, universally applied definitions for clinical conditions or phenotypes used in the context of SCD initially threatened to make the collection of uniform data from existing medical records across sites impractical and likely impossible. Therefore, the Committee recommended initiation of a formal effort to establish standardized definitions for use in C-Data prospective data collection, CSCC future studies, and SCD research in general.
In parallel with this effort, an NIH-sponsored conference, “New Directions for Sickle Cell Therapy in the Genome Era”, listed as its highest priority the establishment of a SCD network that would include a comprehensive patient database and a biological sample repository to support examination of phenotypic diversity and serve as a resource for future research. As a result, the CSCC Center Directors, with support from the NHLBI, endorsed expansion of the C-Data Project to include the collection, testing, and storage of blood and DNA samples from participants. Based on this decision and the earlier recommendation of the C-Data Protocol Committee, the CSCC Steering Committee approved formation of an ad hoc work group to establish consensus definitions of the phenotypic manifestations of SCD.

BMSCs were defined by the International Society for Cellular Therapy. We obtained human bone marrow from the UAB Bone Cell Core Facility based on a protocol approved by the UAB Institutional Review Board. The plastic adherent human BMSCs were isolated by immunoselection using the mouse antibody to STRO-1 (dilution: 0.1 mg ml−1 and 10 μl of the diluted solution to 1–2.5 × 105 cells in a total reaction volume) and rat anti-mouse IgM-conjugated magnetic beads (Dynatech) according to the manufacturer’s directions (for in vitro migration assay). The adherent human BMSCs also were sorted by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) with the antibodies to CD45 (Bio-legend Inc) and CD146 (Abcam Inc) to harvest CD146+CD45 BMSCs. Mouse bone marrow cells were harvested and cultured. The adherent cells57 (link)–59 (link) were further sorted by FACS using the antibodies to CD29, Sca-1, CD45 and CD11b (Bio-legend Inc). The sorted cells were enriched by further culture and confirmed by flow cytometry. Colony forming unit-fibroblast (CFU-F)57 (link),59 (link) was analyzed by culturing 5 × 103 sorted cells to T-25 flask. The CFU-F colonies were further induced with osteogenic medium for seven days and analyzed with AP staining. The BMSCs cells were also cultured with or without osteogenic medium for 21 days for von Kossa or Alizarin Red staining.

Enrolled patients were required, at a minimum, to meet the following criteria: 1) age ≥ 18 years; 2) a diagnosis of SLE according to the revised American College of Rheumatology criteria (22 (link)); 3) active disease (SELENA-SLEDAI score ≥ 6) at screening (18 (link)); and 4) seropositivity as defined by 2 positive ANA or anti-dsDNA test results (ANA titers ≥ 1:80 and/or anti-dsDNA antibodies ≥ 30 IU/mL), of which ≥ 1 test result had to be obtained during screening. The study entry criteria were identical to those in BLISS-52 (17 (link)). BLISS-76 enrolled patients from Europe and North/Central America (136 centers in 19 countries). A stable treatment regimen was required for ≥ 30 days before the first study dose; stable treatment could include prednisone (or equivalent) alone (7.5 to 40 mg/d) or combined (0 to 40 mg/d) with AM drugs, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and/or IS therapies. Exclusion criteria included serious intercurrent illness, severe active lupus nephritis, severe central nervous system manifestations, and pregnancy. Prior treatment with a B-cell–targeted therapy was exclusionary, as was any investigational biologic agent within 1 year of screening or investigational nonbiologic agent within 60 days. Additional medication exclusions included IV cyclophosphamide within 6 months, and a tumor necrosis factor inhibitor, anakinra, IV Ig, prednisone > 100 mg/d, or plasmapheresis within 3 months of screening, as well as immunization with a live vaccine within 1 month. Each site was required to obtain ethics committee/institutional review board approval of the final study protocol. Patients’ rights, safety, and well-being were protected based on the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. Informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to study screening. The first patient was randomized in February 2007, and follow-up of the last patient was completed in March 2010.

Centers were requested to report patients receiving cellular therapies other than HCT. Hematopoietic advanced cellular therapies were defined as infusion of cells undergoing substantial manipulation after collection, either selection and/or expansion, or genetic modification and thus qualify as investigational or approved advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) according to Regulation (EC) N° 1394/2007. In this context, “substantial” should be understood as referring to the definition included in the Regulation and subsequent regulatory documents and may not reflect the workload assumed by cell processing facilities working in conjunction with clinical programs. Depending on their nature and indications, hematopoietic cellular therapies may be designed to replace or to complement HCT. Administration of non-substantially manipulated hematopoietic cells, such as transplantation of CD34+ selected hematopoietic stem cells were counted as HCT and not as cellular therapy [18 (link)]. Similarly, un-manipulated lymphocyte infusions post-HCT were counted as donor lymphocyte infusions (DLI) and not as cellular therapy. Hematopoietic cellular therapies include immune effector cells as defined in FACT-JACIE standards for Hematopoietic Cellular Therapy: “A cell that has differentiated into a form capable of modulating or effecting a specific immune response.” This definition covers CAR-T cells and forms the basis for accreditation requirements in recent EBMT-JACIE recommendations [17 , 19 (link)].
Hematopoietic cellular therapies were categorized as chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR -T); in vitro selected/and or expanded T cells or cytokine activated, such as virus specific T cells; cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK); regulatory T cells (TREGS); genetically modified T cells other than CAR-T; natural killer cells (NK); dendritic cells; mesenchymal stromal cells; in vitro expanded CD34+ cells; and genetically modified CD34+ cells. This survey did not include cells from sources other than hematopoietic tissue. On the other hand, gene therapy protocols, such as those used to treat thalassemia or SCID were included, however numbers have remained low.
