High-flow Oxygen for Vaso-occlusive Pain Crisis
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by recurrent vaso-occlusive pain crisis (VOC), which may evolve to acute chest syndrome (ACS), the most common cause of death among adult patients with SCD. Currently, there is no safe and effective treatment to abort VOC or prevent secondary ACS. Management of VOC mostly …
Trans-auricular Nerve Stimulation as an Innovative Approach to the Treatment of Pain in Pediatric Patients Suffering From Sickle Cell Disease
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of transauricular vagus and trigeminal nerve stimulation on the treatment of pain in children with Sickle Cell Disease. The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of using a tAN device to treat pain in pediatric participants with SCD by …
Clinical and Biomarker Effects of Depot Medroxyprogesterone Acetate in Females With Sickle Cell Disease
This research is being conducted to see if using an injectable contraception, Depot Medroxyprogesterone Acetate (Depo-Provera), can reduce the pain experienced by women with sickle cell disease. Participants in this study will be adult women with sickle cell disease who regularly experience sickle cell pain. They will complete a 3-month …
Minimizing Toxicity in HLA-identical Sibling 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).
Effects of the Contraceptive Implant in Women With Sickle Cell Disease
The objective of this study is to measure the acceptability and impact of the progestin implant on frequency of vaso-occlusive crises, quality of life, and hematologic parameters in women with SCD.
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 …
Effect of MitoQ on Platelet Function and Reactive Oxygen Species Generation in Patients With Sickle Cell Anemia
MitoQ is commercially available as a dietary supplement and it has been tested as a potential drug in other diseases, but it has never been tested in patients with sickle cell disease. The goal of this research is to study if MitoQ, a molecule that works as an antioxidant by …
Sickle Cell Disease and the Genomic and Gene Therapy Needs of Stakeholders
The primary objectives of this prospective mixed-method interview study are to use semi-structured interviews in parents of sickle cell disease (SCD) patients to describe parental attitudes of research involving genomic sequencing, including concerns about participation and expectations from researchers and second, to use surveys to quantitatively measure genetic/genomic knowledge, trust …
A Phase 1b, Open-Label Study of DISC-3405 in Participants With Sickle Cell Disease (SCD)
This is an open-label, multicenter, within-participant dose-escalation study examining up to 3 dose levels of DISC-3405 and will assess the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of DISC 3405 in participants with sickle cell disease.
Single-dose Pharmacokinetics of Pociredir in Participants With Sickle Cell Disease
This clinical trial is a study to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of the tablet formulation Pociredir in fasted and fed state participants with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD).
