Filter by:This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the demographic characteristics, clinical conditions in term of physical examination findings), functional status, and laboratory results of patients with thalassemia minor (TM) and breast cancer (BC) in order to identify any differences between the group with BC only. Available data as anticancer treatment, comorbidities, weight and height will be combined to report body mass index (BMI) in kg/m2, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, ECG, transthoracic echocardiography, blood count, lipid panels, glucose, kidney function tests, (N terminal) NT-proBNP, troponins, handgrip assessments, functional status were extracted from patients files and hospital electronic archives.
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disease that causes the body to produce abnormal ( sickled ) red blood cells. SCD can cause anemia and life-threatening complications in the lungs, heart, kidney, and nerves. People with SCD are also at increased risk of forming blood clots in the veins and lungs, but the standard treatments for these clots can cause increased bleeding in people with SCD. Better treatments are needed. Objective: To test a drug (fostamatinib) in people with SCD. Eligibility: People aged 18 to 65 with SCD. Design: Participants will have 6 clinic visits over 12 weeks. Each visit will be 2 to 3 hours. Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. They will tell the researchers about the medications they take. Fostamatinib is a tablet taken by mouth. Participants will take the drug at home, twice a day, for up to 6 weeks. Participants will have a clinic visit every 2 weeks while they are taking the drug. At each visit they will have a physical exam with blood tests. They will talk about any side effects the drug may be causing. If they are tolerating the drug well after the first 2 weeks, they may begin taking a higher dose. Participants will have a final visit 4 weeks after they stop taking the drug. They will have a physical exam and blood tests; they will be checked for any side effects of the drug.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of luspatercept in participants who require regular blood cell transfusions due to b-thalassemia and myelodysplastic syndromes in India
1. To study the expression pattern of PUM1 gene in patients with sickle cell anemia and β-thalassemia intermedia. 2. To detect PUM1 protein levels in sickle cell anemia and β-thalassemia intermedia patients. 3. To correlate PUM1 gene expression pattern and protein levels with HbF levels in sickle cell anemia and β-thalassemia intermedia patients.
This is an open label study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of β-globin Restored Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cells in ß-Thalassemia Major Patients
This is a non-randomized, open-label, single-dose study. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the treatment with lentiviral vector encoding βA-T87Q-globin gene transduced autologous hematopoietic stem cells in subjects with β-thalassemia major.
This study will investigate the role of genetic modifiers in hemoglobinopathies through a large-scale, multi-ethnic genome-wide association study (GWAS).
The effect of N_acetylcystein as an antioxidant on iron overload and frequency of blood transfusion in β-thalassemia major patients at Assiut Childern Hospital University And its cosubmitted for partial fulfillment of master degree in Pediatrics
This study will be intented to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and engraftment efficacy after myeloablative preconditioning and transplantation of autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells transduced with a lentiviral vector encoding the human βA-T87Q-globin gene in patients with transfusion-dependent (TDT) β-thalassemia.
