Summary

This study tests whether adding the chemotherapy drug bendamustine to standard care can prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in people with blood cancers who receive a stem cell transplant. About 25 participants will get bendamustine with or without another drug, cyclophosphamide, after their transplant. The goal is to find the safest dose that reduces the risk of the donor cells attacking the patient's body.
