The interim analysis of the first 100 patients revealed zero device-related safety issues and showed potential clinical benefits in the treatment group.
Based on these findings, the DSMB recommended increasing trial enrollment from 200 to 339 patients to strengthen statistical power. Currently, 137 patients are enrolled, with completion expected by late 2026. The trial's primary endpoint evaluates 90-day mortality or dialysis dependency in SCD therapy patients versus standard care.
