CSL889 for sickle cell pain crisis
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Genetic & congenital, Kidney & urinary, Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 12 years or older and have sickle cell disease of any type.
- You are at the hospital now with a new pain crisis that needs strong pain medicine through an IV.
- Your pain started less than 72 hours ago before your first IV pain medicine.
- You have not had more than 5 pain crises requiring hospital stays in the last 6 months.
- You do not have signs of acute chest syndrome, a recent stroke, or new kidney injury.
- You are not currently taking methadone or buprenorphine for pain.

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.
This trial tests an IV medication called L-citrulline for children, teens, and young adults (ages 6–21) with sickle cell disease who are having a sudden, severe pain crisis (called a vaso-occlusive crisis). The goal is to see if it helps relieve pain quickly.
This trial tests if an intravenous medication called L-citrulline can help treat pain crises in children and young adults with sickle cell disease. Participants receive either the study drug or a placebo while in the hospital for a severe pain episode.
This trial tests if adding lidocaine to standard pain treatment can reduce the amount of morphine or oxycodone needed for a severe pain crisis or acute chest syndrome in sickle cell disease. It is for adults in the ICU who have already started opioid treatment within the last 72 hours.
This trial tests CS-206, an experimental therapy for people with sickle cell disease. It aims to reduce severe complications like pain crises, acute chest syndrome, strokes, and other serious events. You may qualify if you have a specific genetic type of sickle cell disease and have experienced complications despite standard treatments.
This trial tests whether a virtual reality (VR) experience can help reduce pain during a sickle cell “vaso-occlusive crisis,” which is an episode of sudden, severe pain. It’s offered alongside the care team’s usual pain management to see if VR makes pain feel better.
