HBOC-201 provides an oxygen treatment bridge and can be used to eliminate, delay, or reduce the need for red blood cell transfusions in anemic patients This is an expanded access IND protocol, and will provide treatment with HBOC-201 to severely anemic adults for whom blood is not an option
The purpose of this protocol is to provide treatment with HBOC-201 to patients with life-threatening anemia for whom blood is not an option. Such patients may also be referred to in this document as patients who refuse blood transfusion (PWRBT). Other patients who potentially may require HBOC-201 treatment include those with red blood cell alloantibodies for whom immunologically compatible red blood cell units cannot be found, although these patients are less common than PWRBT.
The purpose of this protocol is to provide treatment with HBOC-201 to patients with life-threatening anemia for whom allogeneic blood transfusion is not an option. HBOC 201 [hemoglobin glutamer - 250 (bovine)] has been previously studied as an alternative to blood transfusions in severely anemic patients needing a way to enhance tissue oxygenation. HBOC-201 is purified, cross-linked and polymerized acellular bovine hemoglobin in a modified lactated Ringer's solution, and does not require blood compatibility.
Fanconi anemia is a rare autosomal or sex linked recessive genetic disease. The disease is characterized by bone marrow hematopoiesis failure, multiple congenital abnormalities, and susceptibility to neoplastic diseases. The cells of FA patients are extremely sensitive to MMC and DEB. The symptoms and ages of FA patients are different, so by comparing the exome of FA patients and their parents, the mutations that were accumulated in FA patients could be found, and these genes might be sensitive to repairment and be important for hematopoiesis maintainance.
