Hundreds of clinical trials are rolled out around the world monthly, and many of them are designed to specifically uncover and manage the medical needs of people with sickle cell disease and trait. We keep an updated list of these global studies here, so you don’t have to go searching for them. There might be active study recruitment and enrollment happening at a site near you. Explore the list below to see the different types of studies, and use the navigation options on the left to get as specific as you would like.
The proposed research is to determine the clinical efficacy and neurobiological mechanisms of acupuncture analgesia in patients with sickle cell disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate crovalimab for the treatment of a sickle cell pain crisis (also known as a VOE) that requires hospitalisation in adult and adolescent participants with SCD.
This study is a pilot, phase II, open-label study of the angiotensin II receptor blocker, losartan, in patients with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) 6 years or older for 12 months.
The investigators will conduct a hybrid type 1 effectiveness implementation trial to assess the effectiveness of acupuncture and guided relaxation on 360 people with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD), while observing and gathering information on implementation in three health systems: University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System, University of Florida Health, and Duke University Health Systems.
In this prospective, single-arm, open-label, imaging and treatment study, the investigator will test the hypothesis that crizanlizumab will prevent the progression of silent cerebral infarcts in patients with sickle cell disease.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of crovalimab compared with placebo as adjunct therapy in the prevention of VOEs in participants with SCD.
Background: Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) causes blood cells form a crescent shape.

This study will validate the diagnostic accuracy of a cutaneous hydration sensor.
Voxelotor is a new drug for adolescents and adults with sickle cell disease that improves hemoglobin levels and reduces the incidence of worsening anemia.
The purpose of the present observational study is to remotely reevaluate the cohort of 67 sickle cell patients with transcranial Doppler-detected cerebral vasculopathy included in the national "Sickle Cell Transplant" protocol and whose 1- and 3-year results were published in JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association) in 2019 and in BHJ in 2020.
