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