Clinical Trial Summary

The BABY HUG Treatment Study was designed to see if treatment with the drug hydroxyurea (also called HU) in children with sickle cell disease could prevent organ damage, especially in the spleen and kidneys. There was also a chance that treatment could prevent painful crises, lung disease, stroke, and blood infection.


Clinical Trial Description

The current observational trial, Follow-Up Study ((FUS) II includes enhanced neuropsychological, brain, cardiac, and pulmonary evaluations for this very well characterized cohort of subjects. Measures of spleen and renal function and markers of DNA damage will continue to be collected. Assessment of other target organs in sickle cell disease including pulmonary and cardiac function will be performed in addition to evaluation of developmental aspects of sickle cell disease (SCD) and potential HU toxicity. ;
