Osteopathic Manipulation in the Management of Pain Associated With Sickel Cell Disease
Background: Sickle cell disease is the most common monogenic disease in the world caused by a mutation in the β-globin gene which creates abnormal hemoglobin called HbS. This polymer deforms the erythrocyte, making it more fragile and less flexible, thus leading to the occlusion of small blood vessels. This obstruction …
Arginine Therapy for the Treatment of Pain in Children With Sickle Cell Disease
The purpose of this study is to determine whether giving extra arginine to patients with sickle cell disease seeking treatment for vaso-occlusive painful events (VOE) will decrease pain scores, decrease need for pain medications or decrease length of hospital stay or emergency department visit.
Study on Use of Omega-3 Fatty Acids to Improve Outcomes in Individuals With Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Pain and many adverse outcomes occurring in sickle cell disease are inflammatory driven. Recent data has shown that gut dysbiosis is present in individuals with sickle cell disease. Gut dysbiosis has been linked to inflammation in certain diseases. Omega …
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 …
Myeloablative Conditioning, Prophylactic Defibrotide and Haplo AlloSCT for Patients With Sickle Cell Disease
This is a follow-up trial to NYMC 526 (NCT01461837) to assess the safety, efficacy and toxicity of administering Defibrotide prophylaxis for high-risk sickle cell or beta thalassemia patients undergoing a familial haploidentical allogeneic stem cell transplantation with CD34 enrichment and T-cell addback. This patient population historically has a risk of …
Relationship Between Abnormal Myocardial Perfusion and Diastolic Dysfunction in Sickle Cell Disease Using PET
There is limited information on what causes injury to the heart in individuals with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). Researchers in this study want to see if decreased blood flow to the heart during stress could be causing the heart damage seen in SCD patients. They also want to test people …
Losartan for Diffuse Myocardial Fibrosis in Sickle Cell Disease
This study is a pilot, phase II, open-label study of the angiotensin II receptor blocker, losartan, in patients with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) 6 years or older for 12 months. The investigators will enroll 24 patients with SCD over the course of 1 year with a goal to complete all …
A Study of Nicotinamide With Oral Tetrahydrouridine and Decitabine to Treat High Risk Sickle Cell Disease
A randomized control trial in 20 subjects with sickle cell disease comparing oral THU-decitabine to nicotinamide and in combination (THU, decitabine and nicotinamide).
L-Arginine in Children Having Sickle Cell Disease With Increased Tricuspid Regurgitant Jet Velocity
This study aims to investigate the possible efficacy and safety of L-Arginine in children having Sickle Cell Disease with increased Tricuspid Regurgitant Jet Velocity
Minimizing Toxicity in HLA-identical Related Donor Transplantation for Children With Sickle Cell Disease
This multisite prospective study seeks to determine if HLA-identical sibling donor transplantation using alemtuzumab, low dose total-body irradiation, and sirolimus (Sickle transplant Using a Nonmyeloablative approach, "SUN") can decrease the toxicity of transplant while achieving a high cure rate for children with sickle cell disease (SCD).
