Clinical Trial Summary

Prospective phase IV interventional open label randomized controlled trial to assess safety and efficacy of glutamine in preventing vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) episodes in sickle cell pediatrics and adolescents' patients


Clinical Trial Description

Vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) episodes are considered to be the cause of 95% of hospitalizations for sickle cell disease (SCD) patients. Prior studies have described pain management in SCD patients with poor outcomes in the short term and decreased quality of life in patients over the long term. Although that L-glutamine has been recently approved by the FDA for the prevention of acute complications in sickle cell disease. However, there are many gaps in our understanding of its therapeutic implications in SCD. This study will assess the safety and efficacy of glutamine in preventing vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) episodes in sickle cell pediatrics and adolescents' patients ;
