1. to evaluate pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics properties of deferiprone in children less than 6 years of age
2. to evaluate efficacy and safety of deferiprone compared to deferasirox therapy in 1 month to less than 18 year-old children affected by hereditary hemoglobinopathies
3. to provide long-term safety data by analysing all events potentially related to deferiprone use (alone or in combination with deferoxamine) in children aged less than 18 years
