Official Title: ALLOGENEIC HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION (HSCT) IN PATIENTS WITH HIGH RISK HEMOGLOBINOPATHIES LIKE SICKLE CELL DISEASE AND β-THALESSEMIA-MAJOR USING REDUCED INTENSITY CONDITIONING REGIM
Brief Summary: This study will evaluate the use of reduced intensity conditioning regimen in patients with high risk hemoglobinopathy Sickle Cell and B-Thalassemia Major in combination with standard immunosuppressive medications, followed by a routine stem cell transplant in order to assess whether or not it is as effective as myeloablative high dose chemotherapy and transplant.
