Recruiting studies near Riverside–San Bernardino
- NCT06071377Recruiting
Learning About Health in People With Sickle Cell Trait
This study is for adults who have or might have sickle cell trait (carrying the sickle cell gene but not the disease). It aims to understand the health effects of sickle cell trait over time by following participants and collecting health information.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
San Bernardino, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06439082RecruitingPhase 3
Crizanlizumab for sickle cell pain crises
This trial tests whether crizanlizumab can reduce painful sickle cell crises (called vaso-occlusive crises or VOCs) in people with sickle cell disease who have frequent crises. It may be an option for those who still have crises despite current treatments.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 12–100 - NCT06699849RecruitingPhase 2
CSL889 for sickle cell pain crisis
This trial tests a new medicine, CSL889, for people with sickle cell disease who are currently having a pain crisis (vaso-occlusive crisis). The goal is to see if it safely helps reduce the pain and speed recovery.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - 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.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 2 years+ - NCT07224360RecruitingPhase 2
Safety of a new drug for sickle cell pain
This study tests a new medicine called anumigilimab to see if it is safe for people with sickle cell disease. The study focuses on those who have had pain crises recently, to help manage and prevent them.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06612268RecruitingPhase 3
Testing etavopivat for sickle cell disease
This study tests an experimental pill called etavopivat for people with sickle cell disease who have had some pain crises in the past year. The goal is to see if it reduces these crisis episodes.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT05359991Recruiting
Exercise study in children and teens with lung or blood conditions
This study tests how safe and effective a structured exercise program is for children and teens. It also compares results between children with sickle cell disease, cystic fibrosis, and healthy peers (and some teens after COVID-19 infection).
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 10–17 - NCT03279094RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a half-matched bone marrow transplant for sickle cell
This early-phase study tests whether a “half-matched” donor bone marrow transplant, with special medicines to calm the immune system before transplant, can improve outcomes for people with sickle cell disease. It may help high-risk patients who have frequent complications and don’t have a fully matched donor.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 1–30 - NCT04774536RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CRISPR gene-edited bone marrow transplant for severe sickle cell
This Phase 1/2 study tests a CRISPR-edited bone marrow (stem cell) transplant to treat severe sickle cell disease. It aims to reduce dangerous sickle-related complications by changing the patient’s stem cells before transplant.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12–35 - NCT05685368RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Therapy groups to help teens cope with sickle cell
This trial tests a structured talk-therapy program called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for teens and young adults with sickle cell disease. It aims to help you manage tough thoughts and feelings and cope with day-to-day challenges over 6 weekly group sessions.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 14–21 - NCT04819841RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene correction using your own stem cells to improve sickle disease
This trial tests a gene-correction treatment that changes sickle hemoglobin (HbS) into normal hemoglobin (HbA) using your own stem cells. It may help reduce severe sickle cell complications for people with severe disease who meet specific safety and medical criteria.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12–50 - NCT06374238Recruiting
Peer Support for Young People with Sickle Cell Pain
This study is testing a peer support program for teens and young adults (ages 16–30) with sickle cell disease who have chronic pain. You'll connect with a trained peer supporter through your smartphone to learn pain coping skills and get support.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 16–30 - NCT07401823Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Long-term follow-up study for sickle cell disease treatment
This study is a follow-up for people with sickle cell disease who already saw a benefit in fetal hemoglobin from the earlier Pioneer study. It tests the long-term safety and effects of the study drug pociredir (also called FTX-6058) while allowing most standard sickle cell treatments except hydroxyurea.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02675959RecruitingPhase 2
Transplant with defibrotide for sickle cell disease
This trial tests a stem cell transplant from a half-matched donor using a strong conditioning regimen and a drug called defibrotide to protect organs. It aims to cure sickle cell disease in patients who have had serious complications like stroke, chest syndrome, or frequent pain episodes.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 6 months–21 years

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.
