Timing of stem cell infusion to prevent GVHD in blood cancer
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study is testing whether the timing of a stem cell infusion affects the chance of developing graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), a common complication after transplant. It may help make transplants safer for people with blood cancers.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 12 and 60 years old.
- You must have a confirmed malignant blood disease (like leukemia) and be planning your first stem cell transplant from a donor.
- You should be in fairly good health with no major organ failure or active infections.
- You must be willing to take part in a study where the timing of the stem cell infusion is randomized, and you can sign a consent form.

This trial looks at whether the time when stem cells are infused affects the chance of developing graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after a cord blood transplant. It may help find the best timing to improve outcomes for people with blood cancers.
This trial tests whether giving a special type of immune-regulating cells (iMSCs) can help prevent a serious complication called graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) after a stem cell transplant. It’s for people who are at higher risk of developing GvHD based on a blood test taken a week or two after their transplant.
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.
This trial tests a combination of four medicines (cyclophosphamide, abatacept, vedolizumab, and ruxolitinib) to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant for children and young adults with certain blood cancers. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the risk of GVHD, a serious complication where donor cells attack the body.
This Phase 2 study tests ways to lower the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious complication after an allogeneic stem cell transplant from a matched donor. It is for people with acute leukemia or MDS who are going to receive intensive conditioning therapy, aiming to improve safety while keeping the transplant effective.
This trial tests a new way to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant in people who have already received PD-1 immunotherapy. The goal is to make the transplant safer and more effective.
