Tests treatment safety and results for RPS19 Deficient Diamond-Blackfan Anemia
Official title Assessing the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of APR-2020 in Pediatric and Adolescent Subjects With RPS19 Deficient Diamond-Blackfan Anemia
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07476183
What this study is testing
What is APR-2020?
APR-2020 is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for rps19 deficient diamond-blackfan anemia.
Also referred to as Cell Therapy.
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
- Brief summary The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if APR-2020 is safe and can help treat Diamond-Blackfan Anemia (DBA) in adolescents and children. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is APR-2020 safe and well tolerated?
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
