Half-Matched marrow transplant offers new hope for severe sickle cell
NCT ID NCT03240731
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study tested a bone marrow transplant from a half-matched (haploidentical) donor in 25 people aged 13 to 40 with severe sickle cell disease. The goal was to replace the faulty blood cells with healthy donor cells using a mild chemotherapy regimen and a drug called cyclophosphamide to prevent graft-versus-host disease. The main measure of success was survival without sickle cell symptoms and with mostly donor-type hemoglobin. This approach aims to control the disease long-term, but lifelong monitoring and possible ongoing medication may be needed.
