Registered outcomes7

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With a Reduction in Invariant Natural-Killer T-Cell (iNKT Cell) Activation by 70% or MoreBaseline-End of study infusion over 48 hoursTo determine if infusional Regadenoson reduced iNKT cell activation among individuals with sickle cell anemia (SCA) and pain or acute chest syndrome (ACS) compared to placebo by 70% or greater.
SecondaryLength of Hospital StayHospital Presentation- Hospital Discharge, assessed up to 1 monthTo determine if regadenoson reduces length of hospital stay among individuals admitted with SCA and pain or ACS compared to placebo
SecondaryNumber of Participants With an Improvement in Respiratory SymptomsBaseline-End of study infusion over 48 hours
To determine if regadenoson improved respiratory symptoms among individuals with sickle cell anemia (SCA) and pain or acute chest syndrome (ACS) compared to placebo. Patients were classified as having an improvement in respiratory symptoms if they experienced any of the following outcomes:(1) respiratory rate decreased by 25% from baseline or normalized (≤20 bpm) or (2) degree of hypoxia (SpO2) on room air increased by 10% from baseline or normalized (≥92%) or (3) thoracic pain improved by 3 points from baseline on a 10-point visual analog scale.
SecondaryOpioid UseBaseline-End of study infusion over 48 hoursTo determine if regadenoson reduces opioid use among individuals with SCA and pain or ACS compared to placebo.
SecondaryLevel of Inflammatory Markers (A2A)Baseline-End of study infusion over 48 hoursTo determine if regadenoson reduces levels of inflammatory markers among individuals with SCA and pain or ACS compared to placebo.
SecondaryLevel of Inflammatory Markers (IL-4)Baseline-End of study infusion over 48 hoursTo determine if regadenoson reduces levels of inflammatory markers among individuals with SCA and pain or ACS compared to placebo.
SecondaryLevel of Inflammatory Markers (IFN-gamma)Baseline-End of study infusion over 48 hoursTo determine if regadenoson reduces levels of inflammatory markers among individuals with SCA and pain or ACS compared to placebo.
