简要总结
An open label, safety and pharmacokinetic study of oral hydroxyurea solution administered to children from 6 months to 17.99 years (i.e. to the day before 18th birthday), with a 12 to 15 month treatment period for each participant. The study treatment duration will be for 6 months at the maximum tolerated dose [MTD], which is usually reached by 6 months after initiation of treatment. For patients in whom time to MTD is longer than 6 months or not achieved at all, the maximum duration of study treatment will be 15 months.

入选标准
- •Male or female aged from 6 months to 17.99 years of age (i.e. to the day before 18th birthday).
- •Diagnosis of sickle cell anemia (HbSS and HbSβº).
- •Parent(s)/legal guardian able and willing to provide written informed consent for the child to take part in the study.
- •Where applicable, the child should assent to undergo blood sampling for pharmacokinetic and biochemistry purposes and to allow physiological measurements to be made.
排除标准
- •Any clinically significant medical condition or abnormality, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, might have compromised the safety of the patient or which might have interfered with the study.
- •Hydroxyurea use within 6 months before enrolment.
- •Renal insufficiency (known creatinine more than twice the upper limit of normal (ULN) for age and >1.0 mg/dL [88.4 μmol/L]).
- •Clinical evidence of hepatic compromise with alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >3 times the ULN (a temporary swing in ALT did not result in exclusion).
- •Other significant organ system dysfunction based on the site Investigators discretion.
- •Severe active infections: fungal, viral or bacterial (as confirmed by culture), examples included tuberculosis, malaria, active hepatitis, osteomyelitis or any other illness that would have precluded the use of HU in normal clinical practice.
- •Active chronic leg ulcers.
- •Known allergy to oral HU solution or any of the excipients.
- •Positive pregnancy test for females of child-bearing potential (in post-menarcheal females) before initiation of treatment, unless participant was sexually abstinent. Note: True abstinence was considered as being in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. Periodic abstinence (such as calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.
- •Inadequate contraception measures in sexually active females (post-menarcheal females) and males of child-bearing age (see Section 9.5.1.10.4).
- •Breastfeeding at study initiation.
- •Participation in another clinical trial of an IMP.
- •Known infection with HIV.
