- No other significant sickle cell or non-sickle cell illness that would confound the results of the trial

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and clinical effects of SCD-101 when given to adults with sickle cell disease.
Detailed Description
This is single site, dose- escalation study of SCD-101 in participants with homozygous sickle cell disease (S/S) or S/beta 0 Thalassemia. All participants will be monitored for safety, tolerability, and dose-limiting toxicities.
The study is divided into two parts. Part A is an open-label, non-randomized, non-placebo-controlled dose escalation study with a 28-day treatment phase and 14-day follow-up phase with five cohorts . Part B is a randomized, placebo-controlled, confirmatory 2x2 crossover cohort with a 28 day washout between periods, and a 28-day follow-up phase.
