Dengue and sickle cell disease study
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Genetic & congenital, Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at how severe dengue fever affects people with sickle cell disease. It aims to understand why some people with sickle cell get very sick from dengue and how their cells react.

This trial tests an investigational drug called DISC-3405 in people with sickle cell disease (SCD) to see if it is safe and how it affects your body. It may be an option if you have certain SCD complications or lab results.
This trial tests a “biochip” device using samples from people with sickle cell disease. If it works, it may help doctors study sickle cell biology more accurately using patient samples.
This trial tests a new treatment called CS-206 for adolescents with severe sickle cell disease. It aims to see if this treatment can help by making stem cell transplants safer and more effective for people who have not done well with standard care.
This Phase 1 study tests whether nicotinamide, oral tetrahydrouridine, and decitabine can help people with high-risk sickle cell disease. It is mainly a safety-and-dosing study, but it also looks for signs the medicines may improve disease-related problems.
This study collects blood and urine samples from adults to help researchers understand diseases affecting blood vessels. Your donation helps scientists develop better treatments.
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.
