Establishing a Repository of Blood and DNA Samples From People With Sickle Cell Disease (Comprehensive Sickle Cell Centers Collaborative Genotype-Phenotype Database and Sample Repository) (Gen/Phen)

July 11, 2016 updated by: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI)

Comprehensive Sickle Cell Centers (CSCC) Collaborative Genotype-Phenotype Database and Sample Repository

Sickle cell disease (SCD), also known as sickle cell anemia, is an inherited blood disease that can cause intense pain episodes. The purpose of this study is to collect, test, and archive blood and DNA samples from children and adults with SCD to study the role that genes play in SCD. Blood and DNA samples will be stored for use in future SCD studies.

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

SCD is an inherited blood disorder that is caused by an abnormal type of hemoglobin. Symptoms include anemia, infections, organ damage, and intense episodes of pain, which are called "sickle cell crises." The Comprehensive Sickle Cell Centers (CSCC) is a network of 10 centers that conduct research to improve health care and treatment options for people with SCD. The Collaborative Data Project (C-Data) is a CSCC study that is establishing a comprehensive database of children and adults with SCD who are receiving medical care at participating CSCC research centers. This study will initiate the development of a centralized laboratory that will collect, test, and archive blood and DNA samples from participants in the C-Data project for use in future SCD studies. The collection of blood and DNA samples will provide researchers with an important resource to better define the genetic diversity of SCD. In the future, genotype-phenotype correlation studies, population studies, and various other genetic studies may be conducted.

This study will enroll participants taking part in the C-Data project. For this study, participants will undergo a blood collection. The blood sample will then be sent to a lab to characterize the red blood cells and hemoglobin. DNA will be analyzed to identify genes that influence the severity of SCD. Blood and DNA will be stored for future genetic research in SCD and closely related disorders.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

All adult and pediatric patients who are enrolled in the C-Data project are eligible for this study. (C-Data eligibility: All adult and pediatric patients who have been seen within the last 24 months in the hospital or clinical setting and are expected to return episodically or regularly for care at 1 of the CSCC are eligible for inclusion in the C-Data project.)

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participating in the C-Data project

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Unable to undergo blood collection

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
August 1, 2007

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
