Study Summary

This study aims to answer the question whether daily oral vitamin D supplementation can reduce the risk of respiratory or lung complications in children and adolescents with sickle cell disease. Respiratory problems are the leading causes of sickness and of death in sickle cell disease. The investigators hypothesize that daily oral vitamin D3, compared to monthly oral vitamin D, will rapidly increase circulating vitamin D3, and reduce the rate of respiratory complications by 50% or more within the first year of supplementation in children and adolescents with sickle cell disease. This study is funded by the FDA Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD).

Primary Outcome

Respiratory events will be calculated as the sum of respiratory infection, asthma exacerbation, and acute chest syndrome, as ascertained by use of a validated questionnaire.

Interventions

  • DRUG Placebo oral tablet
  • DRUG Daily oral vitamin D3, 3,333 IU
  • DRUG Monthly oral vitamin D3, 100,000 IU
