A randomized clinical trial of the efficacy and safety of rivipansel for sickle cell vaso-occlusive crisis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The efficacy and safety of rivipansel, a predominantly E-selectin antagonist, were studied in a phase 3, randomized, controlled trial for vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) requiring hospitalization (RESET). A total of 345 subjects (204 adults and 141 children) were randomized and 320 were treated (162 with rivipansel, 158 with placebo) with an IV loading dose, followed by up to 14 additional 12-hourly maintenance doses of rivipansel or placebo, in addition to standard care. Rivipansel was similarly administered during subsequent VOCs in the Open-label Extension (OLE) study. In the full analysis population, the median time to readiness for discharge (TTRFD), the primary end point, was not different between rivipansel and placebo (-5.7 hours, P = .79; hazard ratio, 0.97), nor were differences seen in secondary end points of time to discharge (TTD), time to discontinuation of IV opioids (TTDIVO), and cumulative IV opioid use. Mean soluble E-selectin decreased 61% from baseline after the loading dose in the rivipansel group, while remaining unchanged in the placebo group. In a post hoc analysis, early rivipansel treatment within 26.4 hours of VOC pain onset (earliest quartile of time from VOC onset to treatment) reduced median TTRFD by 56.3 hours, reduced median TTD by 41.5 hours, and reduced median TTDIVO by 50.5 hours, compared with placebo (all P < .05). A similar subgroup analysis comparing OLE early-treatment with early-treatment RESET placebo showed a reduction in TTD of 23.1 hours (P = .062) and in TTDIVO of 30.1 hours (P = .087). Timing of rivipansel administration after pain onset may be critical to achieving accelerated resolution of acute VOC. Trial Registration: Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT02187003 (RESET), NCT02433158 (OLE).

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
