Gene hunt: scientists seek clues to blood transfusion reactions in sickle cell
NCT ID NCT06944067
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to find genetic differences that explain why some people with sickle cell disease develop immune reactions to blood transfusions. Researchers will compare the genes of 50 participants who have had reactions with those who have not. The goal is to identify specific gene changes that cause these reactions, which could lead to better treatments in the future.
