This study looked at whether giving the antibiotic vancomycin helps cancer patients who have diarrhea and a positive screening test for C. difficile but a negative toxin test. Only 9 patients were enrolled, far fewer than planned. Researchers measured changes in C. difficile leve…

This early-stage study tested whether adding a drug called BMS-986004 to standard immune-suppressing medicine could help prevent acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in 45 adults with blood cancers or disorders receiving a stem cell transplant. GVHD occurs when donor immune cel…

This study tested whether a hydrochloric acid lock can help treat central line infections in 212 cancer and blood disease patients. The acid solution was placed in the line for 10 minutes, repeated three times, alongside standard antibiotics. The goal was to see if it reduces tre…

This trial tested a long-acting clotting factor called N8-GP in 124 young children (under 6 years old) with severe hemophilia A who had never been treated before. The goal was to see if it safely prevents and treats bleeding episodes. The study found that N8-GP helped control ble…

This early-phase study tested a new drug called MG1113, given as a shot under the skin, in 15 adults with severe hemophilia A or B. The main goal was to check safety and how the drug moves through the body. Participants received multiple doses to see if the drug is well-tolerated…

This study tested a pathogen-reduced version of cryoprecipitate, a blood product that helps blood clot, in 208 patients undergoing liver transplant or heart surgery. The goal was to see if having this product readily available could stop bleeding early and reduce the need for oth…

This study looked at 50 patients who needed a stem cell transplant from a partially matched donor but had antibodies that could attack the donor cells. Before transplant, they received a blood purification treatment called protein A immunoadsorption to remove those antibodies, so…

This study tested a one-time gene therapy (valoctocogene roxaparvovec) in 22 adults with severe hemophilia A. The treatment aims to help the body produce its own clotting factor VIII, reducing the need for regular infusions. Participants also received steroids to manage immune re…

This study tested a new gene therapy (SB-525) in 13 adults with severe hemophilia A, a bleeding disorder. The goal was to see if a single infusion could safely raise the body's own clotting factor levels and reduce bleeding episodes. Participants were monitored for up to 5 years …

This early study tested a new clotting factor called efanesoctocog alfa (BIVV001) in 13 adults with severe hemophilia A. The goal was to see how long it stays in the body compared to standard and extended half-life factors. Participants received single injections of each type in …

This phase 3 study tested a new medicine called BIVV001 (efanesoctocog alfa) in 159 people aged 12 and older with severe hemophilia A. The goal was to see if regular injections could prevent bleeding episodes, improve joint health, and enhance quality of life. Participants receiv…

This early-phase trial tested a gene therapy called BAX 888 in 4 men with severe hemophilia A. The therapy uses a harmless virus to deliver a working gene for factor VIII, a blood-clotting protein they lack. Participants received a single intravenous infusion, and the study focus…

This study tested a new drug called BIVV001 in 74 children under 12 with severe hemophilia A, a condition where blood doesn't clot properly. The drug is given through a vein and aims to prevent bleeding episodes. The trial found that the drug was safe and effective at reducing bl…

This study looked at whether touch-massage can reduce anxiety in people with blood disorders (like leukemia or lymphoma) who are hospitalized in a sterile, isolated room. Sixty-two patients received three massage sessions, and researchers measured their anxiety levels before and …

This study tested a personalized program of exercise and manual therapy (like stretching and massage) in 10 adults with severe hemophilia who had multiple damaged joints. The goal was to see if it could reduce pain, improve joint movement and strength, boost heart-lung fitness, a…

This study tested a monthly online peer support group for young adults (ages 18-39) who had received a stem cell transplant. The group met for one hour over six months, led by a nurse and social worker. The goal was to see if the program was practical and helpful for reducing anx…

This study tested whether montelukast (Singulair), a common asthma drug, can reduce the number and severity of infusion reactions in people receiving monoclonal antibody treatments for blood disorders. Forty adults were given montelukast along with standard premedication before t…

This study tested a new drug called efanesoctocog alfa in 24 adults with severe hemophilia A. Researchers compared how long it stays in the body versus two existing drugs. Participants received one dose of their usual drug, then later one dose of the new drug, with blood samples …

This study looked for a virus called HHV6 in the skin and blood of 37 adults with blood cancers who developed a rash during hospital stays. The goal was to see if the virus is linked to the rash, which could help doctors diagnose and treat the rash more effectively. The study is …

This study looked at whether it is safe to lower the number of platelets needed before placing a central line (a special IV) in patients with blood disorders. Normally, patients get a platelet transfusion if their count is below 50, but this study tested a lower trigger of 10. Th…

This completed study tested whether artificial intelligence and MRI scans could help automate the planning of total marrow irradiation, a type of radiation therapy given before a bone marrow transplant for blood cancers. Researchers aimed to reduce the 10-day planning time and be…

This study looked at over 1,200 people in Denmark who had a stem cell transplant for blood diseases, some as far back as 1970. Researchers used detailed surveys to measure late effects and quality of life. The goal is to find out what medical and personal factors help survivors f…

This completed study examined lung CT scans from 148 adults with blood diseases to identify common patterns of lung involvement. Researchers tracked how often certain radiological features appeared and counted complications. The goal was to better understand the range of lung iss…
