Official title
Sparing Conversion to Abnormal TCD Elevation (SCATE) - a Phase III Clinical Trial to Compare Standard Care (Observation) With Alternative Therapy (Hydroxyurea) for Reducing the Risk of Converting to an Abnormal TCD Velocity in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia and Conditional Pre-treatment TCD Velocities.
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary goal of the Phase III SCATE trial is to compare 30 months of alternative therapy (hydroxyurea) to standard care (observation) in children with sickle cell anemia and conditional (170 - 199cm/sec) Transcranial Doppler (TCD) velocities. For the alternative regimen (hydroxyurea) to be declared superior to the standard treatment regimen (observation), the hydroxyurea-treated group must have a three-fold reduction in the incidence of conversion to abnormal TCD velocities (≥ 200 cm/sec), compared to the standard treatment arm.
