Abstract
Population-based studies and case reports suggest that there may be an increased risk of acute leukemia associated with sickle cell disease (SCD). Following the description of a new case report, an extensive review of the literature identified 51 previously described cases. Most cases study showed myelodysplastic features confirmed, when available, by genetic markers such as chromosome 5 and/or chromosome 7 abnormalities and TP53 gene mutations. The increased risk of leukemogenesis is certainly multifactorial and related to the pathophysiologic mechanisms of the clinical manifestations of SCD. Chronic hemolysis and secondary hemochromatosis may cause increased chronic inflammation, resulting in persistent marrow stress, which could potentially compromise the genomic stability of the hematopoietic stem cells generating genomic damage and somatic mutations over the course of SCD and its treatment, resulting in a clone that led to acute myeloid leukemia.

Abstract
Ex-vivo gene therapy (GT) with hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) engineered with integrating vectors is a promising treatment for monogenic diseases, but lack of centralized databases is hampering an overall outcomes assessment. Here we aim to provide a comprehensive assessment of the short and long term safety of HSPC-GT from trials using different vector platforms. We review systematically the literature on HSPC-GT to describe survival, genotoxicity and engraftment of gene corrected cells. From 1995 to 2020, 55 trials for 14 diseases met inclusion criteria and 406 patients with primary immunodeficiencies (55.2%), metabolic diseases (17.0%), haemoglobinopathies (24.4%) and bone marrow failures (3.4%) were treated with gammaretroviral vector (γRV) (29.1%), self-inactivating γRV (2.2%) or lentiviral vectors (LV) (68.7%). The pooled overall incidence rate of death is 0.9 per 100 person-years of observation (PYO) (95% CI = 0.37-2.17). There are 21 genotoxic events out of 1504.02 PYO, which occurred in γRV trials (0.99 events per 100 PYO, 95% CI = 0.18-5.43) for primary immunodeficiencies. Pooled rate of engraftment is 86.7% (95% CI = 67.1-95.5%) for γRV and 98.7% (95% CI = 94.5-99.7%) for LV HSPC-GT (p = 0.005). Our analyses show stable reconstitution of haematopoiesis in most recipients with superior engraftment and safer profile in patients receiving LV-transduced HSPCs.
