Prolong Pharma’s Sanguinate Shows Promise in Reverting Shape of Red Blood Cells in SCD
Prolong Pharmaceuticals’ investigational drug for treatment of sickle cell disease (SCD)-associated complications, Sanguinate, showed promising results in patients experiencing vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC).
According to the research study, “SANGUINATE Returns RBCs To More Normal Morphology In Patients With VOC,” presented at the 2017 Annual Symposium of the Foundation for Sickle Cell Disease Research (FSCDR) in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, this new treatment was able to restore the shape of red blood cells, improving the VOC symptoms in SCD patients.
