New pill aims to shield kids with sickle cell from devastating strokes

NCT ID NCT05953584

Summary

This study is testing a new daily pill called etavopivat to see if it can lower the high risk of stroke in children with sickle cell disease. It will involve about 27 children aged 12-16 who have fast blood flow in their brain arteries, a key warning sign for stroke. The main goal is to see if taking the medicine for one year safely reduces this dangerous blood flow speed.
