Longer vs shorter abatacept doses to prevent graft-versus-host disease
Treatments studied
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 2 years old and weigh at least 10 kg
- You need a planned unrelated adult donor for the transplant (bone marrow or blood), with specific allowable mismatch details
- You (and your parent/guardian if needed) must be able to sign consent for the study
- Your cancer must be treatable with transplant and be in remission on standard tests
- You must have good day-to-day functioning (score about 80 or higher)
- You must not have certain excluded cancers or active relapse

This trial tests whether a drug called ruxolitinib, with or without another drug called abatacept, can prevent graft-versus-host disease and cytokine release syndrome after a half-matched stem cell transplant from a family donor. It's for people with certain blood cancers who are getting this type of transplant.
This study tests a combination of three drugs—high-dose cyclophosphamide, bortezomib, and abatacept—after a donor stem cell transplant to see if they can better prevent graft-versus-host disease (a condition where donor cells attack the body).
This trial tests adding a drug called emapalumab to standard medications (cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil) to prevent graft-versus-host disease in adults receiving a donor stem cell transplant. This approach aims to reduce complications after transplant.
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (vedolizumab, cyclophosphamide, and tacrolimus) to prevent graft-versus-host disease, a common complication after a donor stem cell transplant. It is for people with certain blood cancers who are getting a reduced-intensity transplant.
This trial tests whether removing certain immune cells (T cells) from the donor transplant can lower the risk of chronic graft-versus-host disease (long-term immune attack after transplant) in children and young adults with blood cancers. If you qualify, it may help improve transplant outcomes while tracking safety and side effects.
This trial tests a new way to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), a common complication after a stem cell transplant. It is for people with certain blood cancers who are getting a stem cell transplant from a half-matched family member or unrelated donor.
