One donor, two transplants: experimental procedure aims to cure blood cancer and fix kidneys

NCT ID NCT01758042

Summary

This pilot study tested a combined transplant from a partially matched family donor. It aimed to treat patients who had both a serious blood disorder (like leukemia) and advanced kidney disease at the same time. The goal was to cure the blood disorder and restore kidney function while potentially reducing the need for lifelong anti-rejection medications.
