Sickle Cell Disease, Thalassemia
Nonmyeloablative Peripheral Blood Mobilized Hematopoietic Precursor Cell Transplantation for Sickle Cell Disease and Beta-thalassemia in People With Higher Risk of Transplant Failure
Background: Some sickle cell disease or beta-thalassemia can be cured with transplant. Researchers want to test a variation of transplant that uses low dose radiation and a combination of immunosuppressive drugs.
- Conditions
- Sickle Cell Disease, Thalassemia, Stem Cell Transplantation, Graft vs Host Disease
- Trial name
- NCT02105766
- Testing

Sickle Cell Disease, Sickle Cell Anemia
Red Cell Half Life Determination in Patients With and Without Sickle Cell Disease
Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited blood disorder. It results from a single genetic change (mutation) in red blood cells (RBCs). RBCs are the cells that carry oxygen to the body.

Healthy
G-CSF and AMD3100 to Mobilize Stem Cells in Healthy Volunteers
This 12-day study will test whether the combination of G-CSF (granulocyte-colony stimulating factor) and AMD3100 (Mozobil) is more efficient in mobilizing stem cells for collection than the use of G-CSF alone.
- Trial name
- NCT00082329
- Testing
- AMD 3100 (Mozobil plerixafor), Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)
- Where
