Sickle Cell Anemia in Children Clinical Trial
Official title:
Efficacy of Gum Arabic as Anti-oxidant, Anti-inflammatory and Fetal Hemoglobin Inducing Agent in Sickle Cell Anemia Patients : A Randomized, Double-blind, Two-armed Parallel-group, Placebo-controlled Phase II/III Study - Khartoum, Sudan
To study the efficacy of Gum Arabic as an anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and Fetal Hemoglobin-inducing agent among Sickle Cell Disease children. Half of participants will receive Gum Arabic and the other half will receive placebo
Polymerized hemoglobin is injurious to the red cell membrane, resulting in oxidative damage in sickle cell disease . Fetal hemoglobin is protective against sickling and its decrease is associated with vaso-occlusive crisis . Gum Arabic is soluble fibers with prebiotic properties. It increased the level of serum butyrate which is short chain fatty acid. The latter proved to serve as fetal hemoglobin inducing agent both in vivo and in vitro study. And also has strong anti-inflammatory properties. So our aim to test whether oral digestion of Gum Arabic will induce fetal hemoglobin among sickle cell pediatric patients ;
