1. A method, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof:
(i) an effective amount of an agent targeting CD33, wherein the agent comprises an antigen-binding fragment that binds CD33, and
(ii) a population of hematopoietic cells that are genetically engineered to comprise a mature transcript of CD33 having a mutated exon 2 and wherein the hematopoietic cells are engineered by a CRISPR-Cas system comprising one or more guide nucleic acids comprising a sequence according to any one of SEQ ID NO: 52-61.
