NCT ID NCT06852768
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This early-phase trial tests whether d-MAPPS eye drops can safely and effectively treat chronic ocular graft-versus-host disease (oGVHD), a painful dry eye condition that can occur after a stem cell transplant. One adult participant will use the drops or a placebo four times daily for 90 days. Researchers will track symptom changes using dry eye questionnaires and eye scores.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- d-MAPPS ophthalmic solution (eye drops made from a biological substance)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new treatment for chronic dry eye caused by graft-versus-host disease, potentially easing symptoms like grittiness and irritation.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small trial with only 1 participant, so results may not apply to others. The treatment is compared to placebo, and it may not prove effective or safe in larger studies.
