Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Xromi

Xromi: Xromi is indicated for the prevention of vaso-occlusive complications of Sickle Cell Disease in patients over 9 months of age as part of standard clinical practice

Study summary

This post-authorisation safety and efficacy study (PRECISE PASS) evaluates the use of Xromi® (hydroxycarbamide 100 mg/mL oral solution) in children aged 9 months to under 2 years with sickle cell disease (SCD).

The objective is to assess the safety profile and clinical effectiveness of Xromi® under routine clinical conditions. The study includes a prospective cohort of Xromi®-treated patients and a matched retrospective comparator cohort of untreated patients. Participants will be followed for 24 months from treatment initiation or matched index date.
