    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of Participants With Increase in Hb >1 g/dL From Baseline to Week 24 [Baseline to Week 24]

      Number of participants with increase in Hb >1 g/dL from Baseline to Week 24

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Annualized Vaso-Occlusive Crisis (VOC) Incidence Rate [Baseline to Week 72]

      Number of Vaso-Occlusive Crisis (VOC) events averaged per year.

    2. Percentage Change From Baseline in Hemolysis Measures [Baseline to Week 24]

      Percentage change from Baseline to week 24 in unconjugated bilirubin

    3. Percentage Change From Baseline in Hemolysis Measures [Baseline to Week 24]

      Percentage change from Baseline to week 24 in the absolute reticulocyte which is used to estimate the degree of effective erythropoiesis. This values is important in Sickle Cell Disease and was reported by the central laboratory.

    4. Percentage Change From Baseline in Hemolysis Measures [Baseline to Week 24]

      Percentage change from Baseline to week 24 in reticulocytes % which is a % of total Red Blood Cells (RBCs).

    5. Percentage Change From Baseline in Hemolysis Measures [Baseline to Week 24]

      Percentage change from Baseline to week 24 in Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH)

    Study Results

    Participant Flow

    Recruitment Details Overall, 449 subjects were screened for this study at 60 study sites. Between January 2017 and May 2018, a total of 274 subjects were randomized at 58 study sites across 12 countries. All 274 randomized subjects were included in the ITT Population. A total of 271 subjects received study drug and were included in the Safety Population.
    Pre-assignment Detail Screening procedures were done within 35 days of randomization to assess eligibility.
