What this study is about

Researchers are testing whether etavopivat reduces the number of vaso-occlusive crises (sickle cell pain crises) caused by blood vessel blockages in adults and adolescents with sickle cell disease. The trial will also evaluate how well etavopivat can reduce organ damage, improve exercise tolerance, and decrease fatigue in people with sickle cell disease. Participants will either receive etavopivat or a placebo. Which treatment they get is decided randomly. Etavopivat is a new medicine being tested in other studies as well.
