Condition Sickle Cell Disease
Interventions Drug: SelG1
Drug: Placebo
Enrollment 198
Recruitment Details Approx. 174 patients were planned. A total of 198 patients were randomized. 192 patients received at least 1 dose of study drug & were analyzed for safety; 198 patients were analyzed for efficacy, 125 patients contributed data to the analysis of SelG1 PK data, & 176 patients contributed data to the analysis of PD data (% P-selectin inhibition).
Pre-assignment Details The study included a Screening Phase, Treatment Phase, and Follow-up Evaluation Phase. During the Screening Phase, potential study participants were to be fully screened for both inclusion and exclusion criteria before and undergo clinical and laboratory evaluations within 30 days prior to randomization into the study.

1.Primary Outcome
Title Annual Rate of Sickle Cell-related Pain Crises (SCPC) Per Hodges-Lehmann Median
Hide Description An SCPC is defined as an acute episode of pain with no other medically determined cause than a vasoocclusive event that requires a medical facility visit and treatment with oral or parenteral narcotics, or parenteral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The annual rate of SCPC is defined as the total number of pain crises for a patient occurring from the date of randomization to the end date multiplied by 365 divided by the number of days during that same time period. End date is defined as the last dose date plus 14 days. For participants never dosed, the end date was the end of study date. This calculation accounts for early dropouts or lost to follow-up by extrapolating the SCPC rate of every participant to one year.

8.Secondary Outcome
Title Patient Reported Outcome: Change From Baseline in Pain Severity/Pain Interference Domain From Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) Questionnaire
Hide Description The BPI instrument was completed by the patients at pre-specified study visits prior to & during the Treatment & Follow-Up Evaluation Phases. Patients completed the brief pain inventory long-form, 1-week recall at the indicated pre-specified study visits. The BPI is a standardized self-reported questionnaire developed to provide information on the intensity of pain (the sensory dimension) as well as the degree to which pain interferes with function (the reactive dimension). The BPI also asks questions about pain relief, pain quality, & the patient's perception of the cause of pain. Since pain can be quite variable over a day, the BPI asks patients to rate their pain at the time of responding to the questionnaire (pain now), & also at its worst, least, & average over the previous week. The scorings for pain & interference have a range from 0 (no pain/no interference) to 10 (worst pain/complete interference). The BPI scoring manual was used to calculate scores for each domain.
Time Frame Baseline, Day 15, Week 14, Week 26, Week 38, Week 52, and Week 58, up to 58 weeks

Indicates events were collected by systematic assessment

The Safety population includes all randomized patients who received at least one dose of study drug.

Although the safety is now coded with MedDRA 21.1, the CSR, when first published 1in 2016, used MedDRA 16.1 CFB = Change from Baseline

Certain Agreements
Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.
There IS an agreement between Principal Investigators and the Sponsor (or its agents) that restricts the PI's rights to discuss or publish trial results after the trial is completed.
The terms and conditions of Novartis' agreements with its investigators may vary. However, Novartis does not prohibit any investigator from publishing. Any publications from a single-site are postponed until the publication of the pooled data (i.e., data from all sites) in the clinical trial or disclosure of trial results in their entirety.
