NCT ID NCT05780775

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how different types of fats in the blood (like cholesterol) are linked to complications in adults with sickle cell disease. Researchers will follow 116 participants from the French Caribbean islands to track their fat levels over time and during acute events like pain crises. The goal is to better understand these relationships, not to test a new treatment.
