Filter by:Microneedle (MN) is the mimic of a hypodermic needle, composed of hundreds of micron-sized, out-of-plane protrusions, typically arranged in arrays on a patch that can be applied onto the skin. MN can be fabricated from a variety of materials, preferably biocompatible polymers. Maltose, a natural carbohydrate, is a safe and biocompatible product that can be fabricated into MNs that are biodegradable and soluble within minutes. So far, maltose MN efficacy in enhancing the transdermal drug delivery (TDD) of topical anaesthetic agent such as Eutectic Mixture of Local Anesthetics (EMLA) and thus reducing the pain experienced by paediatric thalassemic patients requiring intravenous cannulation for regular blood transfusion has not been extensively studied. Therefore, the goals of this research are: 1) To compare the VAS score between thalassemic paediatric patients receiving EMLA before IV cannulation for blood transfusion and those receiving EMLA without microneedle application; 2) To compare the skin conductance algesimeter index between those receiving EMLA and microneedle and those receiving EMLA without microneedle application prior to intravenous (IV) cannulation for blood transfusion; 3) To evaluate the agreement between VAS score and the skin conductance algesimeter index obtained via PainMonitor™ machine.
This is a Phase 1,open label,safety,and efficacy study in subjects with non-β0/β0 TDT β-thalassemia Major by transplanting BD211 drug product which is for autologous use only,via a single IV administration.
This clinical trial is a Phase 2 study that will evaluate the safety and clinical activity of etavopivat in patients with thalassemia or sickle cell disease and test how well etavopivat works to lower the number of red blood cell transfusions required and increase hemoglobin.
This is a non-interventional post-authorization safety study (PASS) employing a cross sectional design to evaluate the effectiveness of the additional risk minimization measures (aRMMs) for REBLOZYL. A survey will be used to measure the knowledge and comprehension of the REBLOZYL aRMMs among European Economic Area (EEA) based healthcare professionals (HCPs). The PASS will be conducted among HCPs in a representative sample of EEA countries where REBLOZYL is commercially available, potentially including Austria, Germany, Italy, Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands, Poland, and Spain. Additional EEA countries may be included, as needed, based on commercial availability and reimbursement status.
This study aims to evaluate the persistence of a hypercoagulable state in chronically-transfused patients with beta thalassemia major, by using the thrombin generation test (performed in whole blood and plasma). Patients will be compared with 2 control groups: 1/ healthy volunteers and 2/ carriers of beta-thalassemia trait
To assess the possible role of iron overload as a cause of liver dysfunction in thalassemic childrens receiving multiple blood transfusion and its correlation with serum aminotransferases.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 3 multiple doses of VIT-2763 as measured by the reduction in red blood cell (RBC) transfusion burden from Week 13 to Week 24, to identify the most efficacious and safe dose.
Heart failure from myocardial iron deposition is a severe complication for patients with transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia . Increased cardiac iron content impacts the contractility of cardiomyocytes and can also lead to myocarditis, pericarditis, and arrhythmias. The severity of cardiac dysfunction depends on the amount of iron deposited in the myocardium.Echocardiogram is used as noninvasive method to observe heart status. The objective of this study is to evaluate the heart status in patients of Beta Thalassemia from southern China.
This is a single-arm, open label, multi-center, single-dose phase 1 study in subjects with transfusion dependent β-thalassaemia. The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous CRISPR-Cas9 Modified CD34+ Human Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells (hHSPCs) using ET-01.
β-thalassemia is one of the most common single gene disorder in Southern China. The phenotypic severity of beta thalassemia widely varies from mild to severe forms. Patients with the same beta thalassemia genotype show wide phenotypic variability that ranges from moderate to severe disease due to various genetic modifiers of disease severity. The aim of this study is to looking for the genetic factors which could affect the severity of beta thalassemia.
