Summary

This study aims to understand why some people get graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant for blood cancer, while others do not. Researchers will study genetics, drug levels, and immune cells in 120 transplant recipients and their donors. The goal is to find ways to personalize treatment to prevent GVHD while preserving the anti-cancer effect of the transplant.
