  • Beam Therapeutics set updated biomarker data from Phase 1/2 BEACON trial of investigational autologous cell therapy risto-cel in sickle cell disease for presentation at European Hematology Association 2026 Congress on June 11-14, 2026.
  • New analyses are slated to show risto-cel restored red blood cell health and function, with improvements in sickling behavior and blood flow properties described as comparable to sickle cell trait.
  • Separate model-based meta-analysis is expected to reinforce link between higher fetal hemoglobin levels and better clinical outcomes in sickle cell disease, supporting risto-cel’s proposed mechanism and differentiation.
