Watch for Adakveo or Oxbryta to Treat Sickle Cell Disease

Adakveo (ah-DAK-vee-oh, crizanlizumab) and Oxbryta (oks-BRYE-tuh, voxelotor) will be new meds for sickle cell disease.

They may be added to hydroxyurea...the first-line option to reduce pain crises, hospitalizations, and possibly improve survival.

And they'll compete with oral Endari (L-glutamine)...which seems to reduce pain crises and possibly hospitalizations.
