Hundreds of clinical trials are rolled out around the world monthly, and many of them are designed to specifically uncover and manage the medical needs of people with sickle cell disease and trait. We keep an updated list of these global studies here, so you don’t have to go searching for them. There might be active study recruitment and enrollment happening at a site near you. Explore the list below to see the different types of studies, and use the navigation options on the left to get as specific as you would like.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of treatment with EDIT-301 in adult subjects with severe sickle cell disease (SCD).
16 United States sites
3 Canada sites
18 Years - 50 Years
Phase 1/Phase 2
This study is evaluating a genome-edited, autologous, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) product - OTQ923 to reduce the biologic activity of BCL11A, increasing fetal hemoglobin (HbF) and reducing complications of sickle cell disease.
4 United States sites
1 Italy site
2 Years - 40 Years
HbSS, HbSC
Phase 1/Phase 2
The primary objective of this study is to better understand factors contributing to variations in hydroxyurea (HU) adherence behavior in adolescents and young adults (AYA) with sickle cell disease (SCD).
1 United States site
12 Years - 21 Years
Not Applicable
This study is a single center, prospective exploratory pilot study of Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA) participants.
1 United States site
> 18 Years
SCA, HbSS
Phase 1/Phase 2
The investigators will attempt to develop a more accurate equation to estimate eGFR in pediatric and adult sickle cell patients.
4 United States sites
5 Years - 50 Years
SCA, HbSS
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate a potential behavioral intervention (MED-Go app).
1 United States site
12 Years - 21 Years
Not Applicable
This clinical trial is a Phase 2/3 study that will evaluate the efficacy and safety of etavopivat and test how well etavopivat works compared to placebo to improve the amount of hemoglobin in the blood and to reduce the number of vaso-occlusive crises (times when the blood vessels become blocked and cause pain).
49 United States sites
5 France sites
5 Spain sites
4 Greece sites
4 Italy sites
4 United Kingdom sites
3 Canada sites

12 Years - 65 Years
Phase 2/Phase 3
The investigators are conducting a comparative effectiveness trial among adult patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) who report chronic pain (N = 350), randomized to receive either mobile phone-delivered computerized cognitive behavioral therapy (cCBT; n = 175) or digital education (m-Education; n = 175).
6 United States sites
> 18 Years
Not Applicable
The purpose of this study is to develop a safe and curative stem cell transplant approach to treating sickle cell disease by assessing the safety of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using αβ+ T-cell depletion for children and adolescents with severe sickle cell disease (SCD).
1 United States site
2 Years - 25 Years
Hemoglobin SS
Not Applicable
The SCD-CARRE trial is a Phase 3, prospective, randomized, multicenter, controlled, parallel two-arm study aimed to determine if automated exchange blood transfusion and standard of care administered to high mortality risk adult SCD patients reduces the total number of episodes of clinical worsening of SCD requiring acute health care encounters (non-elective infusion center/ER/hospital visits) or resulting in death over 12 months as compared with standard of care.
