A Trial to Assess Haploidentical T-depleted Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With SCD
HSCT is currently the only curative option for SCD but less than 20% of SCD patients have a MD donor available. So far, all curative approaches beyond a MSD HSCT at young age are non-satisfactory. With the lack of a suitable donor for the vast majority of patients, the major …
PET Imaging of Vaso-Occlusive Crisis (VOC) in SCD
The purpose of this study is to find objective biomarkers of vaso-occlusion (blood vessel blockage) in people with SCD. Using information from earlier studies and work being done, researchers have developed a strategy to image VOC, using positron emission tomography (PET). The ability to see and measure VOC in SCD …
Promoting Utilization and Safety of Hydroxyurea Using Precision in Africa
Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is among the world's most common and devastating blood disorders, affecting more than 300,000 newborns per year. Most infants with SCA are born in the low-resource settings of sub- Saharan Africa, where an estimated 50-90% will die before 5 years of age due to lack of …
Rollover Study for Patients With Sickle Cell Disease Who Have Completed a Prior Novartis-Sponsored Crizanlizumab Study
This is a multi-center multi-national rollover study to allow continued access to crizanlizumab for patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) who are on crizanlizumab treatment in a Novartis-sponsored study (parent study) and are benefiting from the treatment as judged by the investigator.
A Phase 2 Open-label Study to Evaluate the Activity of Etavopivat on Transcranial Doppler Velocities in Pediatric Patients With Sickle Cell Disease Who Are at Increased Risk for Primary Stroke
The study will test a new medicine, etavopivat, for sickle cell disease and see if it is safe and help-ful for participants with sickle cell disease who are at an increased risk of stroke. Participants will be divided into two cohorts depending on their transcranial doppler (TCD) ultrasound results and …
Sickle Cell Children's Exercise Study (SuCCESs)
The Sickle Cell Children's Exercise Study (SuCCESs) will explore the feasibility and effects of a moderate intensity strengthening, balance, speed, and agility intervention program in children with sickle cell disease.
Study of Panobinostat (LBH589) in Patients With Sickle Cell Disease
The goal of this clinical research study is to find out about the safety and effects of a drug called panobinostat when given to adults with sickle cell disease. Panobinostat is a pan histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor. HDAC inhibitors have been shown to significantly increase hemoglobin F induction, which is …
Pediatric -Adult Care Transition Program of Patients With Sickle Cell Disease
Background The pediatric-adult care transition is a risk-disrupting time for patients with chronic disease. This care transition takes place during adolescence; a period of psychological upheavals and adaptations of family roles. During this period, medication adherence is non-optimal and absenteeism at medical appointments is high. Sickle cell disease (SCD) is …
Optimizing the Management of Sickle Cell Patients on Hydroxyurea: The Value of Therapeutic Pharmacological Monitoring
Brief Summary: * A short description of the clinical study, including a brief statement of the clinical study's hypothesis, written in language intended for the lay public. Limit: 5000 characters. Severe forms of sickle cell syndrome are characterized by the occurrence of repeated vaso-occlusive crises (CVO), early complications and a …
Pulmonary Functions in Sickle Cell Disease: Response to Acu-TENS
pulmonary complications are common in sickle cell disease patients. Respiratory training using inspiratory muscle trainer (IMT) is usually a good choice to improve these complications. Recently, acupuncture like transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (AC-tens) may also improve these complications.
