Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The amount of HbF in peripheral blood. In adults the amount of HbF is normally less than 1% of the total amount of hemoglobin. HbF levels should be increased to at least 3% in order to use the results of this study for the design of a follow-up study investigating the effect of Tranylcypromine on HbF levels in sickle cell disease patients.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Not applicable.

Countries

Netherlands
