Transfusion Stem Cell Progenitor Cells

In the Administration section, at table 302, Circulatory body system, Transfusion, a new substance value has been added for Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells, Genetically Modified. Body System Approach Function/Device Qualifier 3 Peripheral Vein 4 Central Vein 0 Open 3 Percutaneous C Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells, Genetically Modified 0 Autologous The new codes will allow the reporting of the administration of genetically modified hematopoietic stem cell treatments, including based gene therapies such as OTL-101. OTL-101, the first ex vivo autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem cell progenitor cells (HSPC) based gene therapy (HSPC-GT) available for use in the US, is intended for the treatment...
