Trial Outcomes & Findings for Hydroxyurea to Prevent Organ Damage in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia (NCT NCT00006400)

NCT ID: NCT00006400

Last Updated: 2020-08-19

Results Overview

Primary Endpoint: Spleen function was assessed by uptake of 99mTc sulfur colloid on liver-spleen scan before initiation of treatment (baseline) and 2 years later (exit). The results of each of the two scans were categorized as normal, functional but abnormal, or not functional by a panel of nuclear medicine specialists blinded to treatment assignment. The proportion of patients whose paired scans demonstrated a decline in splenic function was compared in the hydroxyurea versus placebo groups. The change in splenic function from baseline to 2 years was defined as worse if it changed from normal to decreased or absent, or decreased to absent; and not worse if it changed from decreased to decreased, normal to normal, or decreased to normal.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Before initiation of treatment and at 2 years

Population: Subjects who had baseline and 2 years splenic function measurements, and had baseline measurement different from absent splenic function. A total of 26 hydroxyurea and 23 placebo subjects had missing data or had absent splenic function at baseline.

Primary Endpoint: Spleen function was assessed by uptake of 99mTc sulfur colloid on liver-spleen scan before initiation of treatment (baseline) and 2 years later (exit). The results of each of the two scans were categorized as normal, functional but abnormal, or not functional by a panel of nuclear medicine specialists blinded to treatment assignment. The proportion of patients whose paired scans demonstrated a decline in splenic function was compared in the hydroxyurea versus placebo groups. The change in splenic function from baseline to 2 years was defined as worse if it changed from normal to decreased or absent, or decreased to absent; and not worse if it changed from decreased to decreased, normal to normal, or decreased to normal.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Before initiation of treatment and at 2 years

Population: Subjects who had baseline and 2 years measurements

DTPA GFR was originally a co-primary efficacy outcome for the study. Later in May 29, 2009, this measurement was discontinued because of statistical futility (an extremely small chance that the difference between treatment groups would be statistically significant for this outcome) and the small risk posed by the radiation exposure involved with performing the DTPA GFR test. Subjects who had missing data at baseline or 2 years measurement were excluded from the analysis (29 subjects from the hydroxurea, and 31 subjects from the placebo group excluded).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Before initiation of treatment and at 2 years

Population: All subjects who had baseline and 2 years GFR calculated using Schwartz formula (0.55× height (cm)/serum creatinine (mg/dL)).

Schwartz formula used to calculate GFR is: 0.55× height (cm)/serum creatinine (mg/dL). Where height is in cm and serum creatinine is in mg/dL. Children with missing baseline or 2 years GFR were excluded from the analysis.
