  • Gender
  • Age at the date of transplantation of the exposed patient (+/- 1 year)
  • Foetal hemoglobin (HbF) level (+/- 3%) before treatment intensification (defined as the initiation of either hydroxyurea or a transfusion program)

Who cannot join

  • Study population:
  • Transplantation from donor other than sibling or related cord-blood

About this study

The long term burden of morbidity and mortality in the natural history of sickle cell disease has not been compared up to date to the risks and mortality of a curative option like bone marrow transplantation in severe sickle-cell disease patients. Given this lack of data, primary-care Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) physicians and transplant physicians are prevented from a factual debate over the benefit/risk ratio for each patient and refining indications of transplant in patients. Therefore, the present study seeks to describe and compare the very long-term outcomes after either Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) -matched sibling transplantation (study arm) and "non-transplant care" for severe sickle cell disease SCA patients in order to yield robust comparative data regarding both arms.

The main objective is to assess the benefit of Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) regarding quality of life compared to standard care after 10 years, in patients with severe Sickle Cell Disease (SCD).

Being tested
Spermogram, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), SF36 Quality of life questionnaire, Psychologist interview, Optional sera banking

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evaluation of quality of life assessed by SF36

    It will be assessed by the Short-form 36 (SF36) scale. The Short Form (36) Health Survey is a 36-item measure if health status. The score obtained varies between 0 and 100. The higher the score the less disability.

    Ware JE, Sherbourne CD. The Medical Outcomes Study 36-item short-form health survey (SF-36): I. Conceptual framework and item selection. Med Care 1992;30:473-83.

    Measured: 10 years after HSCT

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Evaluation of gonadal function

    Spermogram in men (proposed not requested), Luteinising Hormone (LH), Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH), estrogen, Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) in women, testosterone in men, Amenorrhea in women.

    Measured: 10 years after HSCT

  2. Evaluation of quality of life

    Questionnaire including data about employment, education level, social financial support.

    Measured: 10 years after HSCT

  3. Proportion of patients with anxiety and depression

    Anxiety and depression levels will be assessed using the Hamilton Anxiety Depression scale : The HAD scale is a self-assessment scale for detecting states of depression and anxiety in the setting of an hospital medical outpatient clinic.

    HADS is a self-administered scale of 14 items which assessed levels of depression and anxiety, divided into 2 subscales of 7 items (Anxiety or HADS-A, Depression or HADS-D). Each item is scored on a scale of 0 to 3. A score is generated for each of the two sub-scales (sum of the 7 items, ranging from 0 to 21). Limit scores, for each of the scores, distinguish: non-cases or asymptomatic ones (score ≤ 7); probable or borderline cases (score 8-10); clearly or clinically symptomatic cases (score ≥ 11)

    Measured: 10 years after HSCT

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Spermogram, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and SF36 Quality of life questionnaire in people with Sickle Cell Disease, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 16 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jean-Hugues Dalle, Pr (+33140033692, jean-hugues.dalle@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of quality of life assessed by SF36 (time frame: 10 years after HSCT). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Apr 2024.
