OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the safety and efficacy of azacitidine and phenylbutyrate in treatment of patients with thalassemia major.


Clinical Trial Description

PROTOCOL OUTLINE: Patients receive azacitidine IV continuously on days 1-4 and oral phenylbutyrate three times a day on days 14-42. Bone marrow needle aspiration is performed on days 6, 14, and 42 to assess disease response to treatment. If no response on day 42, a second course of azacitidine and phenylbutyrate begins 7 days later.
