NCT06831799
Patients with red blood cell disorders (RBCDs), such as Sickle cell disease (SCD) and Thalassemia, are chronic, life-threatening conditions that can become multi-organ complications over time, and are likely at an increased risk of COVID-19-related complications. Patients at the highest risk include the elderly (\>50 in our population), those with a history of respiratory or cardiac disease and those with other comorbidities. Several patients affected by RBCDs undergo splenectomy as therapeutic option to improve their level of hemoglobin concentration. Splenectomized patients, or in the case of SCD with functional hyposplenism, are more vulnerable to bacterial infections / superinfections after viral infection. Acute pulmonary syndrome (ACS) is the main cause of morbidity in SCD in middle-high income countries, and is often triggered by infectious events. Currently, there is no literature on the subject. Thus, any recommendation available comes from the experience gained with previous Coronaviruses infections. Accordingly, the correct treatment and management of infection by Coronavirus SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19) in patients affected by RBCDs may be challenging given the rapid spread of the pandemic and limited literature so far, especially in some countries. Accordingly, there is an urgent need to pool evidence in a unique repository on patients affected by RBCDs and COVID-19 in order to reach critical numbers to facilitate the medical decision making process across Europe. The Registry on patients with rare RBCDs and COVID-19 is an initiative conceived in the core of the European Reference Network on Rare Hematological Diseases (ERN-EuroBloodNet, FPA 739541, www.eurobloodnet.eu) aiming at supporting medical practice of COVID-19 in these patients by gathering evidence on pediatric and adult COVID-19 confirmed cases in RBCDs across Europe.
NCT06466304
respiratory complications are very prevalent in children with beta thalasemia major (BTM), so choosing inspiratory muscle trianing to decrease of prevent it and to improve pulmoanry funntions is important
NCT04353986
This is a prospective, controlled, open-label, pharmacokinetic study. This study aims at studying the PK of sofosbuvir, ledipasvir and sofosbuvir metabolite (GS-331007) in HCV infected children with hematological Disorders. to develop predictive pharmacokinetic model for the 3 moieties in the studied population. In this study, patients in both treatment groups will receive 12 weeks of treatment with a fixed-dose combination tablet containing 400 mg of sofosbuvir and 90 mg of ledipasvir(SOF/LED) orally, once daily with food.
NCT04962984
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
NCT03947632
The aim of this study was to determine the anthropometric measurements in transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia children in Pakistan. The secondary aim was to correlate serum ferritin with the physical growth
NCT02674607
The aim of this study is to evaluate the possible immunologic effects of spirulina in children with beta thalassemia.
NCT03276455
This is a single group, open label study in 10 subjects who are 8 years of age or older with beta-thalassemia major. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transduced with lentiviral vector for the treatment of beta-thalassemia major.
NCT02816957
Evaluate the therapeutic effects health benefits, and immunological effect of Nigella sativa in children with beta thalassemia major.
