Can a lupus drug stop transplant complications?
NCT ID NCT03207958
First seen Apr 24, 2026 · Last updated Apr 24, 2026
Summary
This early study tested the drug belimumab (Benlysta) in 10 adults who had a stem cell transplant for blood cancer. The goal was to see if it could safely prevent chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), a serious long-term complication where donor cells attack the patient's body. Researchers monitored side effects and tracked how many patients developed GvHD. The study was small and focused on safety, not a cure.
