Determine response to Hydroxyurea for Thalassemia patients.

Although a relatively small number of previous studies suggest a modest response to hydroxyurea (HU) therapy in beta-thalassemia, more recent investigations have revealed that some transfusion-dependent patients can become transfusion-independent following HU therapy. Patients with Ggamma XmnI polymorphism, several beta-globin mutations, and alpha-thalassemia deletions were inconsistently reported to have significant responses to HU therapy. To better predict who may respond, we have come up with this simple app which will help you understand the chances of improvement.
