New treatment option for Sickle Cell Disease
Official title A Research Study Looking at Long-term Treatment With Etavopivat in People With Sickle Cell Disease or Thalassaemia
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06609226
What this study is testing
What is Etavopivat A?
Etavopivat A is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for sickle cell disease.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Etavopivat is a new medicine under development for treating blood disorders like sickle cell disease and thalassaemia. Sickle cell disease and thalassaemia are inherited blood disorders that affect haemoglobin.
