Open-Label Extension Study to Pioneer Study 6058-SCD-101

The first dose of study drug will be administered on Day 1 in the clinic and participants will continue at home dosing once daily (QD). Dosing will occur in the clinic on days where there are clinic visits. Treatment Period clinic visits are planned every other week through Week 12 (Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12), monthly through Week 24 (Weeks 16, 20, and 24), and then every 12 weeks from Week 24 through Week 192. A final follow-up visit (Week 196) will occur 4 weeks after the final dose of study drug at Week 192.

Participants will receive pociredir at the dose level they received in Study 6058-SCD-101 through Week 192, unless data from that study indicates a change to a different optimized dose.

• Documented HbF benefit, as judged by the Investigator, from prior study.
• Participant must meet both of the following laboratory values during Screening:

• Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 × 10^9/liter,
• Platelets ≥ 80 × 10^9/liter

Exclusion criteria

• Major surgery, serious illness (acute or chronic), infection (clinically significant bacterial, fungal, parasitic or viral infection which requires therapy), fever not resolved within 3 days of onset and requiring treatment, significant bleeding, cerebrovascular accident, or seizure within 14 days prior to signing the ICF and 14 days prior to starting study drug.
• Sickle cell complication requiring more than 24-hour care from a medical provider in hospital or emergency care setting in the 14 days prior to starting study drug.
