New approach to sickle cell treatment aims to protect young organs
NCT ID NCT07177300
Summary
This study is testing a personalized way to determine the starting dose of hydroxyurea, a standard medication for sickle cell anemia, in young children. Instead of using only weight-based dosing, researchers will use blood tests to understand how each child's body processes the medication. The goal is to better protect children's developing organs like the brain, heart, and kidneys while monitoring long-term effects of treatment.
