Filter by:ENROL, the European Rare Blood Disorders Platform has been conceived in the core of ERN-EuroBloodNet as an umbrella for both new and already existing registries on Rare Hematological Diseases (RHDs). ENROL aims at avoiding fragmentation of data by promoting the standards for patient registries' interoperability released by the EU RD platform. ENROL's principle is to maximize public benefit from data on RHDs opened up through the platform with the only restriction needed to guarantee patient rights and confidentiality, in agreement with EU regulations for cross-border sharing of personal data. Accordingly, ENROL will map the EU-level demographics, survival rates, diagnosis methods, genetic information, main clinical manifestations, and treatments in order to obtain epidemiological figures and identify trial cohorts for basic and clinical research. To this aim, ENROL will connect and facilitate the upgrading of existing RHD registries, while promoting the building of new ones when / where lacking. Target-driven actions will be carried out in collaboration with EURORDIS for educating patients and families about the benefits of enrolment in such registries, including different cultural and linguistic strategies. The standardized collection and monitoring of disease-specific healthcare outcomes through the ENROL user-friendly platform will determine how specialized care is delivered, where are the gaps in diagnosis, care, or treatment and where best to allocate financial, technical, or human resources. Moreover, it will allow for promoting research, especially for those issues that remain unanswered or sub-optimally addressed by the scientific community; furthermore, it will allow promoting clinical trials for new drugs. ENROL will enable the generation of evidence for better healthcare for RHD patients in the EU as the ultimate goal. ENROL officially started on 1st June 2020 with a duration of 36 months. ENROL is co-funded by the Health Programme of the European Union under the call for proposals HP-PJ-2019 on Rare disease registries for the European Reference Networks. GA number 947670
Rare Anaemia Disorders (RADs) is a group of rare diseases characterized for presenting anaemia as the main clinical manifestation. Different medical entities classified as RADs by ORPHA classification are most of them chronic life threating disorders with many unmet needs for their proper clinical management creating an impact on European health systems. RADs present diagnostic challenges and their appropriate management requires from specialised multidisciplinary teams in Centers of expertise. Although there are some examples of well-established national registries on RADs in EU, the lack of recommendations for Rare disease registries implementation and the lack of standards for interoperability has led to the fragmentation or unavailability of data on prevalence, survival, main clinical manifestations or treatments in most of the European countries.
This study is being done to learn about etavopivat, a once a day medicine taken by mouth in adolescents with sickle cell disease. The main goals are to study safety and how long etavopivat stays in the bloodstream, while also studying if there are benefits from taking etavopivat. Eligible participants who enter the study will start a 96-week treatment period. At the end of the 96 weeks, participants will have an end of study visit that occurs 4 weeks later. The participants will receive etavopivat every day throughout the treatment period.
REACH is a prospective, phase I/II open-label dose escalation trial of hydroxyurea for children with confirmed SCA between 3 and 10 years of age. The short-term goal is to obtain critical pilot data regarding the feasibility, safety, and benefit of hydroxyurea for children with SCA in multiple distinct research settings in Africa. Based on that information, the longer-term goal is to make hydroxyurea more widely available for children with SCA in Africa, particularly those identified with SCA through expanded newborn screening programs.
Sickle cell disease (SCD) refers to a group of hemoglobinopathies that include mutations in the gene encoding the beta subunit of hemoglobin. Within the umbrella of SCD, many subgroups exist, namely sickle cell anemia (SCA), hemoglobin SC disease (HbSC), and hemoglobin sickle-beta-thalassemia (beta-thalassemia positive or beta-thalassemia negative). Several other minor variants within the group of SCDs also, albeit not as common as the varieties mentioned above. It is essential to mention the sickle cell trait (HbAS), which carries a heterozygous mutation and seldom presents clinical signs or symptoms. Sickle cell anemia is the most common form of SCD
CADPT03A12001 is a prospective, multi-center study that is designed to follow all enrolled patients who have received treatment with OTQ923 for long-term safety and efficacy.
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder where red blood cells, that carry oxygen, are stiff and become stuck in small blood vessels. As a result, affected patients can experience severe pain and serious organ damage. SCD can be cured with a hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT), that is, when they receive blood stem cells from a family donor. But HCT can also have serious side effects, especially in people with organ damage. Researchers want to find ways to make HCT safer for everyone. Objective: To test a new combination of drugs (briquilimab, abatacept, and alemtuzumab), used along with radiation, in people undergoing HCT for SCD. Eligibility: People aged 16 and older with SCD. They must be eligible for HCT and have a family member who is a good donor match. Donors must be aged 4 and older. Design: Participants with SCD will be screened. They will have blood tests and tests of organs including their heart and lung function. Donors will have blood drawn. Participants with SCD will have a tube inserted into a blood vessel in their chest (intravenously). This line will remain in place up to 2 months; it will be used to draw blood and administer the donor cells and other medications. Briquilimab will be administered intravenously 1 time, along with other drugs used to prepare for HCT. Participants will receive abatacept 6 times, from just before they receive their donor cells until 6 months after. Participants will undergo radiation therapy and take other drugs that are standard for HCT. Most HCT recipients remain in the hospital for about 30 days after HCT. Follow-up visits will continue for 5 years....
This study develops and tests the feasibility and acceptability of an adapted intervention, Integrative Strong Body and Mind Training (I-STRONG), in adolescents with pain from sickle cell disease.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether siplizumab is safe and effective for patients with SCD undergoing an allogeneic transplant and to prevent development of Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD) and graft failure. The main goals of this study are : - To determine if acute GVHD occurs and how severe the acute GVHD is in subjects receiving the study drug - To determine if graft failure occurs in subjects receiving the study drugs In this study, participants will receive 5 infusions of the study drug, siplizumab, while getting a stem cell transplant for SCD. Before siplizumab infusion, participants will be given medications to reduce the risks of allergic reaction to the drug.
The Sickle Cell Children's Exercise Study (SuCCESs) will explore the feasibility and effects of a moderate intensity strengthening, balance, speed, and agility intervention program in children with sickle cell disease.
