Brief Summary

This is an open-label study to understand the safety and tolerability of AXA4010, a novel composition of amino acids in adult and adolescent subjects with sickle cell disease over 12 weeks. The study ...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Willing to participate in the study and provide written informed consent
  • Male and female adolescent (ages 12 to 17 inclusive) and adult (≥ 18 years of age) subjects with a prior medically documented diagnosis of sickle cell disease (SS or β0 thalassemia)
  • For Cohort 2 adult subjects only, a Screening cerebral blood flow/ velocity by transcranial doppler (TCD) should be \>110 cm/sec
  • Subjects must show active hemolysis at the time of screening based on each of the following parameters:
  • Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) ≥ 2x above upper limits of normal (ULN) of the age- and gender-appropriate ranges
  • Indirect bilirubin \> 2x of the age- and gender-appropriate ULN
  • Absolute reticulocyte counts \> 2x of the age- and gender-appropriate ULN
  • Able to ambulate (without assistance or walkers etc.) in a 6- minute walk test

Exclusion

  • Ten (10) or more Vascular-Occlusive Crisis (VOC)s that required hospital or emergency room (ER) visits within the past 12 months
  • Any clinically significant changes abnormalities on the screening 12-lead ECG
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate \<60mL/min/1.73m2 appropriately corrected
  • Hemoglobin (Hb) ≤6.0 g/dL at Screening
  • Subjects on chronic transfusion regimens, or who received a transfusion within the last 2 months prior to screening
  • Experienced VOC or any other sickle crises (eg acute chest syndrome, splenic sequestration, dactylitis, stroke) within the last 2 months prior to Screening
  • Current or history of significant alcohol consumption
  • Other poorly controlled medical conditions as judged by the Investigator
  • Known sensitivity and/or history of clinically significant food intolerance/allergies to proteins (including whey, soy, casein, amino acids, etc.)
  • Unable or unwilling to adhere to contraception requirements
  • Any contraindications to an MRI scan for Cohort 2 only
  • Any other condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, renders the subject at risk for compliance, compromises the well-being of the subject, or hinders study completion
