|---|---|
| The primary study parameters are: - Immunogenetic determinants that could determine alloimmunisation; Variations in the gene cluster encoding the Fc-gamma receptors and the SIRP-alpha receptor (Signal Regulatory Protein-alpha). - Clinical determinants that could determine alloimmunisation such as gender, SCD genotype, geographic origin, age, age of first transfusion and number of transfusions. The main study outcome is the cumulative incidence of allo-antibody formation in response to RBC transfusion. | — |
