Recruiting studies near Charlotte
- NCT06941389Recruiting
Comparing stem cell transplant vs standard therapy for sickle cell disease
This study compares two treatment approaches for children with sickle cell anemia: a stem cell transplant from a matched family donor versus continuing regular disease-modifying medicines. It aims to see which treatment works better over time.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 3–20 - NCT06609226RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term safety study of etavopivat for sickle cell disease or thalassaemia
This study looks at the long-term safety and benefits of taking etavopivat for people with sickle cell disease or thalassaemia who have already been helped by it in a previous trial. It aims to see if staying on the treatment continues to be safe and effective.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 2 years+ - NCT03587272RecruitingPhase 2
Sibling bone marrow transplant to reduce treatment side effects
This study tests a way to do a bone marrow (stem cell) transplant from an HLA-matched sibling in children with sickle cell disease, aiming to lower the risk of serious side effects. You may be considered if you have certain past sickle complications and your body can safely handle the transplant plan.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 2–25 - NCT04398628Recruiting
Study of non-cancer blood disorders in people with bleeding or clotting
This study follows people with inherited or acquired non-cancer blood disorders to better understand symptoms, causes, and how different treatments work over time. You may be placed into a disorder-specific group, depending on your diagnosis and testing results.

One-time gene therapy for severe sickle cell and transfusion anemia

Research program for people with sickle cell disease on hydroxyurea
This trial program studies sickle cell disease and how treatment works, especially for people who are already taking hydroxyurea at a stable, maximum tolerated dose. It may help researchers better understand treatment effects and side effects in real patients.

What taking part in a sickle cell disease study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
