Official title
Reduced Intensity Matched Sibling Bone Marrow Transplantation for Sickle Cell Anemia in Patients 2-30 Years Old
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This protocol will be investigating the use of stem cell transplantation, in related donors, to cure sickle cell disease. Sickle cell disease is a recessive disorder caused by a point mutation that results in the substitution of valine for glutamic acid at the sixth position in the B-chain of hemoglobin. This leads to sickling of the red blood cells under many conditions, such as hypoxia, dehydration, and hyperthermia. The sickling leads to vaso-occlusion, which causes irreversible damage in almost all systems in the body, including the central nervous system (CNS), lungs, heart, bones, eyes, liver, and kidneys.
