Study of a new drug to prevent graft-versus-host disease in thalassemia patients
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests a drug called an anti-CD25 antibody to see if it can prevent graft-versus-host disease (a condition where donor cells attack the body) in people with transfusion-dependent thalassemia who are getting a stem cell transplant from a partially matched or unrelated donor.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a type of thalassemia that requires regular blood transfusions
- You are planning to receive a stem cell transplant from an unrelated donor or a partially matched family donor
- Your physical condition score is 70% or higher (you are generally active and able to care for yourself)
- You or your legal guardian agrees to join the study and signs the consent form
- You do not have certain active infections, serious organ problems, or other conditions listed in the exclusion criteria

This Phase 1 study tests a new medicine (GMCN-508A) to see how safe it is and whether it can help people with transfusion-dependent alpha thalassemia. Participants are also expected to follow a treatment plan that includes stem cell transplantation preparation.
This trial tests whether an antibody called anti-CD25 can help prevent a serious side effect (graft-versus-host disease) in adults getting a stem cell transplant for blood disorders. It is for people considered high-risk based on a special scoring model.
This early study tests the safety and potential benefit of the LentiRed gene-based drug in people with transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia (TDT) who are planning an autologous stem cell transplant. It may help reduce the severity of anemia, but the main goal at this stage is to check safety and side effects.
This study is testing whether giving a special antibody (anti-CD25) before a half-matched stem cell transplant can prevent a common side effect called graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), where donor cells attack your body. It is for people with blood cancers who are getting this type of transplant.
This trial tests a modified, lower-toxicity preparation (conditioning) before a bone marrow transplant in children and teens with high-risk thalassemia. It aims to reduce treatment side effects while still allowing transplant success for people who need a donor.
This trial is for people with certain blood cancers or bone marrow disorders who need a stem cell transplant from a half-matched donor. It compares two different doses of a medicine that helps prevent the donor cells from attacking the body (graft-versus-host disease).
