HTRS | FWGBD SICKLE CELL DISEASE RESEARCH ROUNDTABLE 

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most prevalent inherited hemoglobinopathy, affecting millions worldwide, particularly those of African and Asian descent. While SCD primarily impacts the hematologic system, the risk of thrombosis and thrombo-inflammation is an urgent concern within this patient population. Individuals with SCD face a significantly higher risk of developing blood clots, with an incidence of large-vessel thrombosis exceeding 12% before the age of 40. These complications contribute to severe conditions such as venous thromboembolism (VTE), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), stroke, and vaso-occlusive events (VOE), commonly referred to as sickle cell crises.

Thursday, March 13, 2025

11:00 AM - 1:00 PM PT

Use the "Ancillary Event Form" to register - email meetings@htrs.org for access

This roundtable luncheon, supported by Vertex, will convene leading experts, researchers, and clinicians to explore the intricate relationship between SCD and thrombosis. Attendees will gain critical insights into:

• "Reproductive Health Issues in Women with Sickle Cell Disease" 

Alecia Nero, MD, MSCS, FACP

• "Anti-Adhesion and Antithrombotic Therapies in Sickle Cell Disease"

Tomasz W. Kaminski, PhD

• "Basic Science and Translational Hot Topics in Sickle Cell Disease"

 Erica Sparkenbaugh, PhD 

Join this important conversation to help drive progress in understanding and addressing thrombosis in SCD. Stay informed, contribute to the dialogue, and support efforts to improve patient care.

7:00 AM - 8:00 AM - Explore a new treatment option for your patients with hemophilia with inhibitors

Sponsored by Novo Nordisk, Inc.

Hemophilia is a rare, lifelong bleeding disorder that requires ongoing care. Replacement therapy with clotting factor concentrates is the most common treatment for people with hemophilia A or hemophilia B. However, patients may develop alloantibodies, or inhibitors, that make factor replacement therapy ineffective. This is one of the most serious complications of treatment for patients with hemophilia. While there have been advances in the treatment options for people with hemophilia A with inhibitors, there remains a need for additional prophylactic non-factor therapy options, especially for people with hemophilia B with inhibitors. This program will provide information on a new prophylactic treatment option for people with hemophilia A and hemophilia B with inhibitors and share results from the clinical trial.

Speaker: Amy Shapiro, MD; Medical Director and CEO, Indiana Hemophilia and Thrombosis Center
