New stem cell filter could reduce transplant rejection
NCT ID NCT03626285
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 28, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study offers a special stem cell transplant to people with cancer or other disorders who lack a perfectly matched donor. Doctors use a device to purify stem cells from a partially matched donor, removing immune cells that can cause rejection or attack the patient's body. The goal is to make the transplant safer and more effective.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- CD34-selected peripheral blood stem cells
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this approach could make stem cell transplants safer and more available for patients who lack a perfectly matched donor.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early access protocol, not a controlled trial, so results are uncertain. Risks include graft failure, infection, and graft-versus-host disease despite the CD34 selection.
