Recruiting studies near Boston
- NCT03369353Enrolling by invitation
Personalized immune testing study for bowel and transplant patients
This study looks at whether a precise lab test can help understand inflammatory bowel disease, functional gut disorders, and immune changes after stem cell transplant or cell therapy. It may help doctors choose better monitoring and treatments based on your immune and gut test results.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT06859424RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new GVHD prevention method after donor stem cell transplant
This trial tests a new way to prevent graft-versus-host disease (a common side effect of stem cell transplant) using a drug called cyclophosphamide after transplant. It is for adults with certain blood cancers who need a transplant from a partially matched unrelated donor.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–66 - NCT04678401RecruitingPhase 1
Trial tests transplant using a half-matched donor for high-risk leukemia
This Phase 1 trial tests a special bone marrow transplant using a related “half-matched” donor (haploidentical), without a specific immune-suppressing medicine (“IS-free”). It’s for adults with certain high-risk AML or MDS to see if this approach can improve control of the disease while tracking safety.

Electrical stimulation study for dry eye from graft vs. host disease
This trial tests if gentle electrical stimulation around the eye can help relieve dry eye symptoms caused by chronic graft versus host disease (a complication after a stem cell or bone marrow transplant). It is for people with moderate to severe dry eye who have not had recent eye surgeries or certain other eye problems.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–75 - NCT04380740RecruitingPhase 2
Longer vs shorter abatacept doses to prevent graft-versus-host disease
This trial tests whether giving abatacept for a longer or shorter time can better prevent graft-versus-host disease (a common complication after a stem cell transplant). If you’re having a planned unrelated donor transplant, the results may help reduce the risk or severity of transplant-related immune problems.
