Summary

Hypothesis

Efficient unloading of oxygen to regions of high metabolic demand requires a healthy microvasculature to sense local oxygen tension and regulate flow, accordingly. In sickle cell disease patients, the investigators have demonstrated oxygen supply-demand mismatch, or SDM, in proportion to anemia severity. SDM occurs in both the peripheral circulation and the brain, and four characteristics: 1) Hyperemia beyond expected for the level of anemia, 2) Corresponding loss of vascular dilatory reserve, 3) Impaired oxygen unloading to the tissues, and 4) Tissue hypoxia. In sickle cell disease, red blood cell (RBC) and white blood cell (WBC) adhere to vascular endothelium triggering transient or irreversible microvascular damage as well as releasing vasoactive substances that contribute to microvascular dysregulation. The investigators postulate that ongoing microvascular damage/dysregulation in the setting of increased total blood flow contributes to SDM. The investigators believe SEG101, by lowering RBC and WBC adhesion to the microvasculature, will improve SDM and tissue oxygenation.

Objectives

* Primary - The investigators will test whether SEG101 improves SDM in patients with sickle cell anemia by measuring the change in tissue oxygenation measured by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS).
* Secondary/Exploratory - The investigators will identify end-organ disease and whether improvement of SDM by SEG101 occurs in patients with sickle cell anemia.
