Light therapy study sheds light on immune changes in transplant complication
NCT ID NCT03438643
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) — a treatment that uses light to modify a patient's own blood cells — affects the immune system in people with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), a complication after a stem cell transplant. Only 8 people were enrolled before the study was stopped early. The goal was to understand why ECP helps some patients, not to test a cure or new treatment.
