What would an ideal outcome for BEAM-101 look like? Sickle cell “trait” (SCT) (carrier with one mutation, typically asymptomatic) 60% HbA 40% HbS No circulating cells with HbSS genotype Normal (no mutations) 100% HbA 0% HbS No circulating cells with HbSS genotype Sickle cell disease (two mutations) 0% normal Hb (HbA) 100% sickle Hb (HbS) All circulating cells with HbSS genotype >60% HbF (anti-sickling) <40% HbS Minimize cells expressing only HbS Non-disease Disease Base editing
