Voxelotor Treatment Providing Transfusion Independence for Patient With Combined Sickle Cell Disease and Lipopolysaccharide-Responsive and Beige-Like Anchor (LRBA) Deficiency
We present a 22-year-old female with transfusion-dependent anemia due to sickle cell disease (SCD) with lipopolysaccharide-responsive and beige-like anchor protein (LRBA) deficiency whose treatment frequency was moderated with voxelotor (Oxbryta®). The patient was transfusion dependent, initially th...

description | We present a 22-year-old female with transfusion-dependent anemia due to sickle cell disease (SCD) with lipopolysaccharide-responsive and beige-like anchor protein (LRBA) deficiency whose treatment frequency was moderated with voxelotor (Oxbryta®). The patient was transfusion dependent, initially thought to be secondary only to SCD. After the diagnosis of LRBA deficiency, her regimen included abatacept, sirolimus, hydroxyurea, and folic acid, but she still required intermittent transfusion. She was started on voxelotor in January 2020. Since initiation, her baseline hemoglobin level has increased and she is no longer transfusion dependent. |
