Recruiting studies
- NCT07616154RecruitingPhase 2
Gene-Matched Family Stem Cell Transplant for Severe Sickle Cell
This trial tests whether a stem cell transplant from a partially gene-matched family member can cure severe sickle cell disease in children and young adults. The transplant uses a new approach that may work even when a perfectly matched sibling isn't available, and it might help patients whose sickle cell is causing serious complications like strokes, organ damage, or frequent pain crises.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 22 years - 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07064174Recruiting
Sickle cell kidney research study
This study collects kidney tissue samples from people with sickle cell disease and healthy volunteers to better understand how sickle cell affects the kidneys. If you have sickle cell disease or a related blood disorder, you may help researchers find new ways to protect kidney function.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT07083531Recruiting
Bone health study for older Black women with sickle cell trait
This study looks at how carrying the sickle cell trait (not the disease) affects bone density, physical function, and frailty in older African American women. It aims to help understand bone loss risk and prevent fractures.
Farmington, ConnecticutAges 50 years+ - NCT00542230Recruiting
Blood sample study for sickle cell trait and controls
This study collects blood samples to learn more about sickle cell-related genetics and biology. You might benefit indirectly by helping researchers understand the condition, even though this is laboratory research rather than a medication trial.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT05170412Recruiting
Diet habits study for adults with sickle cell disease
This study asks adults with sickle cell disease about what they eat and their eating routines. The goal is to understand diet patterns in sickle cell and how they may relate to health, which could help future care and guidance.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06385886Recruiting
Study to improve sickle cell care for adults not seeing a specialist
This study helps connect adults with sickle cell disease who haven't seen a specialist in over a year back into care. It tests a program designed to make it easier to get regular medical support and improve your health.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03327428Recruiting
Registry study for people with sickle cell disease
This study is a registry that collects information about people living with sickle cell disease. It may help researchers better understand sickle cell types in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland and support future research and care.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges birth–100 years - NCT05373771Recruiting
Care plan for sickle cell pain crises in the ER
This trial studies an approach to improve care during emergency room visits for uncomplicated sickle cell pain crises. It may help by guiding how pain is treated in the ER and tracking outcomes for people with sickle cell disease.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges Up to 18 years - NCT07369024RecruitingPhase 2
Study of low-dose ketamine for sickle cell pain crisis
This study tests whether a low-dose of ketamine (a pain medicine) can help children and young adults with sickle cell disease who are in a pain crisis. It aims to provide better pain relief while avoiding some side effects of standard painkillers.
Torrance, CaliforniaAges 5–20 - NCT04008368RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Second stem cell transplant for sickle cell with declining donor cells
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether repeating a stem cell transplant can help people with sickle cell disease (SCD) whose donor cells are no longer holding strong. It may help restore healthier blood cell production and reduce symptoms such as pain crises and severe anemia.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–80 - NCT06250595Recruiting
European rare blood disorder registry
This study is building a registry of people with rare blood diseases. By joining, you help doctors learn more about these conditions and improve future care.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges Up to 100 years - NCT06213402Recruiting
European registry for rare anemia disorders
This study is creating a European registry (database) to collect information about people with rare anemia disorders. By joining, you help researchers better understand these conditions and improve care for yourself and others.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges birth–100 years - NCT07206095Recruiting
Better diagnosis for inherited red blood cell diseases
This trial aims to improve how doctors diagnose rare inherited anemias, including sickle cell disease and other conditions that destroy red blood cells. It may help if you have a confirmed or suspected diagnosis but need more clarity through advanced testing.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for sickle cell trait?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14 recruiting sickle cell trait studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a sickle cell trait trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a sickle cell trait trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
