Condition: Acute Vaso Occlusive Crisis (VOC) · Sponsor: Asklepion Pharmaceuticals, LLC
The purpose of this study is to determine if intravenous L-citrulline can abrogate an active vaso-occlusive crisis in sickle cell disease, resulting in decreased pain, reduction or elimination of opiate usage, and reduction or elimination of hospital admission. The applicant is developing intravenous L-citrulline (Turnobi™) for treatment of sickle cell disease (SCD). The current development program targets treatment of sickle cell-associated vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) specifically. The aim of Part 1 is to identify the optimum dose regimens for the Part 2 of the trial which is a double-blind, placebo controlled adaptive 'pick-the-winner' design. This study will allow assignment of more subjects to the better treatment arm/s based on emerging data. The study, initially, will evaluate efficacy and tolerability of incremental doses of intravenous (IV) L-citrulline (Turnobi™) in patients with SCD while receiving standard of care therapy for VOC.
