Omega-3 fatty acids to prevent graft-versus-host disease after stem cell transplant
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether omega-3 fatty acids can help prevent acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in people receiving a stem cell transplant from a donor. Omega-3 may reduce inflammation and lower the chance of this serious complication.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are planning to have or have had a donor stem cell transplant (allogeneic).
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You are expected to survive at least 100 days after transplant.
- You do not have very high triglycerides, uncontrolled diabetes, or severe liver or kidney problems.

This trial tests a combination of medications given before and after a stem cell transplant from a family member to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)—a condition where the new cells attack your body. The study includes a newer drug called ivarmacitinib that may help reduce this serious side effect.
This trial tests a new approach to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant from a matched donor. It is for people aged 60 or older with a blood cancer or serious blood disorder who are getting a reduced-intensity conditioning regimen.
This trial tests a stem cell transplant using a reduced-intensity chemotherapy regimen and a low dose of a drug called cyclophosphamide after the transplant to help prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a common complication where donor cells attack the recipient's body. It is for people with certain blood cancers or bone marrow disorders who have a suitable donor.
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 Phase 1 study tests a new combination of medicines to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after an allogeneic stem cell transplant. If it works well, it may lower the chance and severity of GVHD, which can affect skin, liver, and the gut.
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.
