Therapeutic Effect and Safety of Combined Hydroxyurea With Recombinant Human Erythropoietin.

Thalassemia Intermedia

The study hypothesis that treatment with Erythropoietin (EPO) combined with Human Erythropoietin (HUO) therapy will result in hematologic improvement in thalassemia intermedia patients. Second is to determine whether any of the following correlate with improved hematologic response: A decrease in hemolysis, as assayed by a decrease in LDH, compared to baseline levels,baseline Erythropoietin levels,baseline hemoglobin levels and baseline reticulocyte counts (or % circulating nucleated erythroblasts/100 WBCs). Goal: The aim is to assess the possibility of steady increase of hemoglobin levels in thalassemia intermedia patients by at least 1g/dl above baseline levels during therapy using Hydroxyurea and Erythropoietin, growth evaluation,quality of life (QoL) and decline transfusion requirements during study period. Also to report and compare adverse events with other published data regarding.

Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Patients With Thalassemia Major: A Multicenter, Prospective...

Thalassemia Major

The only curative therapy for thalassemia major remains the replacement of the defective erythropoiesis by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT). We conduct a prospective multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy of allo-HSCT in the treatment of thalassemia major.

Unrelated Umbilical Cord Blood Following HLA-haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation...

Thalassemia Major

Allo-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT) is the only way to cure β-thalassemia major at present. To expand donor pool,we developed a haplo-identical HSCT (Hi-HSCT) platform. But in prior Hi-HSCT using high dose post-transplant Cyclophosphamide in patients with leukemia, cytopenia post-transplant often developed, which was considered as a symptom of GVHD. Therefore, the investigators add unrelated umbilical cord blood (UCB) to the Hi-HSCT. It has reported that, as third-party cells, UCB will reduce GVHD.The purpose of this study is to determine whether unrelated UCB following Hi-HSCT can improve outcomes of Hi-HSCT in patients with β-thalassemia major.

Study on the Mechanism of Colla Corri Asini in the Treatment of Thalassemia Patients With Pregnancy...

ThalassemiaPregnancy

This study aims to explore the pathways and targets of regulating globin expression, which might be related to Colla corii asini (CCA, E'jiao) treating anemia in pregnant women with β-thalassemia. Firstly, ten pregnant patients who meet inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to either the treatment group or control group in a 1: 1 ratio. The patients in the treatment group will be given 15 g of CCA daily for 4 weeks and followed up, while the control group will be treated with nothing and followed up in the same period. The transcriptional test and bioinformatics analysis would be conducted to detect and determine the potential pathways and targets of regulating globin expression before and after the treatment. Secondly, sixty pregnant patients who meet inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to either the treatment group or control group in a 2: 1 ratio. The treatment group and control group respectively received the same treatment and follow-up regimen as the transcriptional study mentioned above. According to the results of the transcriptional study, the target gene signaling pathway molecules, Hb concentration, and the levels of α-、β-、γ- and δ-globin will be detected and compared.

Therapeutic Effect of Colla Corii Asini on Improving Anemia and Hemoglobin Composition in Pregnant...

Thalassemia

Seventy-two pregnant patients diagnosed of minor or intermediate beta thalassemia with mild anemia were randomly assigned to treatment group and control group. Patients in the treatment group were given 15 g of Colla corii asini in powder form daily for 4 weeks while the control group were observed and followed up in the same period without any treatments. Levels of hemoglobin(Hb), serum iron (SI), serum ferritin (SF) and three types of hemoglobin components [adult hemoglobin (HbA), fetal hemoglobin (HbF), minor adult hemoglobin (HbA2)] were measured before and after treatments.

A Randomized Trial of LOVAZA in Pediatric Sickle Cell Disease (SCD)

Sickle Cell DiseaseHEMOGLOBIN SS3 more

The purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness of LOVAZA (fish oil capsules) to decrease inflammation in children and adolescents with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). It has been found that besides the damage caused by sickle red blood cells themselves, the inflammatory response that occurs in SCD patients could potentially play a significant role in the occurrence of painful episodes or pain crises. The investigators will also study whether the subject/caregiver feels that there is an improvement in the child's quality of life by taking the medication. Besides the effect of LOVAZA on inflammation,the investigators are also testing whether the drug will have a beneficial effect on blood clotting ability (which is known to be increased in SCD) and on the anemia (low red blood cells) that is part of the disease entity.

Therapeutic Effects of Silymarin in Patients With B-thalassemia Major

Beta-thalassemia MajorIron Overload

Silymarin, a flavonolignan complex isolated from Silybum marianum, has a strong antioxidant, hepatoprotective and iron chelating activities. The present study has been designed to investigate the therapeutic activity of orally administered silymarin in patients with thalassemia major under conventional iron chelation therapy. A 6-month randomized, double-blind, clinical trial was conducted in 140 beta-thalassemia major patients in two well-matched groups. Patients are randomized to receive a silymarin tablet (140 mg) three times a day plus conventional desferrioxamine therapy or the same therapy but a placebo tablet instead of silymarin. Clinical laboratory tests of iron status and liver function are assessed at the beginning and the end of the trial.

The Effective and Safety of Thalidomide in NTDT

Thalassemia

This is an exploratory experiment, aims to explore the effective and safety of thalidomide in the treatment of NTDT to improve the hemoglobin level, improve the quality of life, reduce blood transfusion, so as to avoid the adverse reactions caused by transfusion.15~30 patients will be enrolled, including type α 5~13 cases, type β 10~17 cases.
