Beta thalassemias cause progressively severe anemia, widespread organ damage, and often require blood transfusions. There is no FDA approved therapeutic to treat the underlying cause of beta thalassemia. Fetal hemoglobin is another type of endogenous hemoglobin which can replace the reduced beta globin protein, reduce the anemia, and even abolish transfusion requirements. This type of hemoglobin is normally suppressed in infancy.\n\nSodium 2,2 dimethylbutyrate (ST20, or HQK-1001) is a small molecule which stimulates production of fetal hemoglobin in nonhuman primates and in human patients in Phase I/II trials.\n\nThis is a Phase 2 open-label trial to evaluate the ability of this oral therapeutic to reduce anemia in patients with beta thalassemia intermedia, when administered once daily for 26 weeks. All participants will receive the study drug.', 'detailedDescription': 'This trial will:\n\n1. Determine the proportion of patients in which treatment with the study drug results in an increase in total hemoglobin by 1.5 g/dl above baseline levels when administered for 26 weeks in Thai patients with beta thalassemia intermedia, including Hemoglobin E beta thalassemia.\n2. Determine the number and proportion of participants in whom treatment with the study drug results in an increase in fetal hemoglobin.\n3. Determine the number of participants who have adverse events.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '55 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Diagnosis of Beta Thalassemia Intermedia\n* Splenectomized\n* Average of two Hgb levels between 6.0 and 9.0 g/dl\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Red blood cell transfusion within 3 months of study drug initiation\n* Enlarged spleen\n* Use of hydroxyurea within 6 months\n* QT Segment corrected (QTc)\\> 450 msec (men) or 470 msec (women) on screening ECG\n* Use of iron chelating agents within 7 days of first dose\n* Alanine Transaminase(ALT)\\> 4 times the upper limit of normal\n* Use of erythropoiesis stimulating agents (ESAs) within 90 days of first dose\n* serum creatinine \\> 1.5 mg/dL'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01609595', 'acronym': 'ST20-P2T', 'briefTitle': 'Study of SDMB (2,2 Dimethylbutyrate, Sodium Salt) in Beta Thalassemia Intermedia in Thailand', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Boston University'}, 'officialTitle': 'An Open Label Academic Phase 2 Study of SDMB in Subjects in Thailand With Beta Thalassemia Intermedia', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'ST20-P2T'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'HQK-1001-Thal P2', 'type': 'OTHER', 'domain': 'HemaQuest'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Treatment', 'description': 'Study drug treatment', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: sodium 2,2 dimethylbutyrate']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'sodium 2,2 dimethylbutyrate', 'type': 'DRUG', 'otherNames': ['HQK-1001, ST20'], 'description': 'Oral capsule, dose 20 mg/kg/day, daily, for 26 weeks', 'armGroupLabels': ['Treatment']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Nakhonpathom', 'country': 'Thailand', 'facility': 'Mahidol University Thalassemia Research Centre'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Suthat Fuchareon, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Thalassemia Research Centre, Mahidol University'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Boston University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Mahidol University', 'class': 'OTHER'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Sponsor Investigator', 'investigatorFullName': 'Susan P.
