I am not sure I have ever been more excited and happy for any news in my working life. This will be truly life changing and I am so proud of colleagues and friends who kept going until NICE SAID YES!!!

We are thrilled to share some exciting news! The NHS will soon offer gene therapy to patients over 12 with transfusion-dependent #Thalassaemia, thanks to NICE's groundbreaking recommendation under the managed access agreement! 🌟

Casgevy!!! Nice approved for beta thal. CASGEVY is a one-time therapy to treat people aged 12 years and older with Beta Thalassemia, who need regular blood transfusions. Finally a curative therapy option for our thalassaemia community @UKFHD1 @teamukts @GSTTnhs @KHPHaematology

Fantastic to hear that NICE have approved gene-editing therapy as a treatment and potential cure for thalassaemia. This will transform the lives of patients with beta-thalassaemia who have to have regular blood transfusions. Well done all at @teamukts for lobbying hard for this
