Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Male or female patients ages 2 to 2. Confirmed diagnosis of SCD (e.g. any genotype including HbSS, HbSC, HbSß0 thalassemia,HbSß+-thalassemia patients, others) by hemoglobin electrophoresis or highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) [performed locally]. 3. Experienced at least 1 VOC within the preceding 12 months, as determined by medical history. Prior VOC must have resolved at least 7 days prior to the first dose in the study and should include all the following: a. the occurrence of appropriate symptoms (see VOC definition in Section 7.2.1.1) b. either a visit to a medical facility or healthcare professional, c. receipt of oral/parenteral opioid or other non-opioid parenteral analgesia. 4. If receiving HU/HC or erythropoietin stimulating agent, must have been receiving the drug for at least 6 months prior to Screening and plan to continue taking at the same dose and schedule during the trial. 5. Received standard age-appropriate care for SCD, including penicillin prophylaxis, pneumococcal immunization, and parental education 6. Performance status: Karnofsky = 50% for patients >10 years of age, and Lansky = 50 for patients = 10 years of age 7. Patient must meet the following laboratory values at the screening visit: ? Absolute Neutrophil Count =1.0 x 109/L ? Platelets =75 x 109/L ? Hemoglobin (Hgb) > 5.5 g/dL 8. Patient must have adequate renal and hepatic function as defined: ? Estimated Glomerular filtration rate (eGFRe) = 45 mL/min/1.73 m2 using Schwartz formula ? Direct (conjugated) bilirubin = 2.0 x ULN ? Alanine transaminase (ALT) = 3.0 x ULN 9. Transcranial Doppler (TCD) considered low risk within the past 6 months (for ages 2 to 16 years). 10. Written informed consent/assent, according to local guidelines, signed by the patients and / or by the parents or legal guardian prior to any study related screening procedures are performed 11. Female of non-childbearing potential or with negative serum pregnancy test on Screening and a negative urine pregnancy test (dipstick) prior to dosing on Day 1

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: •History of stem cell transplant. •Received any blood products within 30 days of Day 1 dosing. •Participating and maintaining in a chronic transfusion program (preplanned series of transfusions for prophylactic purposes). •Patients with bleeding disorders •Planning on undergoing an exchange transfusion during the duration of the study. Patients requiring episodic transfusion in response to worsened anemia or VOC are permitted. •Contraindication or hypersensitivity to any drug from similar class as study drug or to any excipients of the study drug formulation. •Planning to initiate or terminate HU/HC while on study, other than for safety reasons •Significant active infection or immune deficiency (including chronic use of immunosuppressive drugs) in the opinion of the investigator.
