Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a term comprising clinically relevant haemoglobinopathies caused by mutations in the HBB gene resulting in sickle haemoglobin (HbS). It is the most common genetic disorder worldwide. Clinically, SCD presents a wide variety of forms that range from mild to very severe, depending on the genotype, with a broad range of comorbidities. The most common and severe form, constituting the majority of SCD cases worldwide, is caused by a homozygous inheritance of a single point mutation in the globin subunit and is usually called SCD SS or sickle cell anaemia (SCA).

This report provides the current prevalent population for Sickle cell disease across 10 Major Markets (USA, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, Brazil, Russia, Canada and India) split by gender and 5-year age cohort. Along with the current prevalence, the report also contains a disease overview of the risk factors, disease diagnosis and prognosis along with specific variations by geography and ethnicity.
