eng.Aaron:
how about people who already got splenectomy ? will the drug help improving the Hb

Andy Battaglia:
eng.Aaron,

The main action of the drug has been to reduce spleen size. It has had no positive effect on Hb level in trials, and as a result, no phase 3 trial is currently planned for thalassemia.
Previous trials have excluded splenectomized patients and I doubt it would have helped them had they been included.
