DR-18 to prevent AML/MDS relapse after transplant
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new cell shot called DR-18 to help prevent leukemia or MDS from coming back after a stem cell transplant. It is for people who have minimal leftover disease or had a special transplant type that lowers the chance of graft-versus-host disease.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older.
- You had a stem cell transplant from a matched donor (10/10 HLA match).
- Your blood counts recovered after transplant (neutrophils above 500 and platelets above 30,000 for 3 days).
- You are not on strong immune-suppressing drugs that were increased in the last month.
- You must be in fairly good health (able to do normal activities with some effort, like a score of 80 or above on the Karnofsky scale).

This trial tests a strong chemotherapy and radiation combo followed by a donor stem cell transplant for people with aggressive blood cancers (like AML or MDS) that haven't responded to earlier treatments or came back. It aims to help prevent the cancer from returning.
This trial tests an injection of donor-derived immune cells (called RC1012) to lower the chance of AML coming back after an allogeneic stem cell transplant. It is aimed at people at higher risk of relapse once the transplant is completed.
This study tests DC-AML immune cells to help people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are in remission but still show signs of leftover cancer cells or relapse risk. It may help the immune system attack AML cells, especially when a stem cell transplant is not an option.
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 adjusting a stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) based on a marker called MRD (minimal residual disease) improves outcomes for people with a high-risk type of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It's for those who are newly diagnosed, between 16 and 65, and have early remission after 1 or 2 rounds of chemotherapy.
This trial tests whether the drug interferon alfa can help prevent blood cancer from coming back after a stem cell transplant. It is for people with certain types of blood cancer (MDS or AML with a TP53 mutation) who had no detectable cancer cells when checked after transplant.
