Official title
Prediction of Adverse Outcomes in Pregnancies of Individuals With Sickle Cell Disease - SCRIPT: Sickle Cell Risk in Pregnancy Tool
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD), common in persons of Black ancestry, affects the shape of hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying part of red blood cells (RBC). It is characterized by many complications, the most dreaded of which are related to pregnancy - affecting both the mother and unborn child. Compared to those without SCD, people with SCD have more adverse pregnancy outcomes (APO): 6x maternal mortality, 2x preeclampsia \& preterm birth, 4x risk of having a baby not growing well in the womb \& stillbirth. There is also greater need for access to care (7x higher hospitalization often multiple times lasting days to months). Yet up to 30% of SCD pregnancies are uncomplicated. Treatments in pregnancy are limited and carry risks. A method to distinguish pregnancies at high-risk of APO that may benefit from these potentially risky treatments, from those likely to be uncomplicated, is urgently needed. To meet this need, the investigators developed a calculator to estimate pregnancy complication risk, using single-centre data. Its accuracy and precision will now be evaluated with international information from several centers by testing the calculator, and adjusting it as needed, using already available pregnancy-data from study centres in several countries. Those age \>16 years, who have a confirmed SCD genotype, pregnancy with one baby, and pregnancy care and birth at a participating study centre will be included. Pregnancy care for the participants will be up to their doctors, with no changes based on the study. SCRIPT - the new tool - will guide future care by predicting who may benefit from specific treatments, reducing harm to low-risk individuals \& will allow selection of high-risk patients for a future trials to determine whether currently available and novel treatments in well-selected patients can improve APO sufficiently to balance treatment-related harms.
