Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is a single center, prospective exploratory pilot study of Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA) participants. The study will enroll patients with early stages of sickle cell nephropathy (Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) stage 1 or 2) who are at the highest risk of CKD progression (presence of both hemoglobinuria and urine albumin concentration ≥ 30 mg/g creatinin
