Stem cell donation: one shot or two? trial seeks best way to mobilize cells
NCT ID NCT07692841
First seen Jul 09, 2026 · Last updated Jul 16, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This trial tests whether giving the drug G-CSF as one daily injection or two smaller injections works better for collecting stem cells from healthy donors. The goal is to find the safest and most effective dosing schedule for donors of all ages. The study involves 560 healthy volunteers who will receive either a single or divided daily dose for up to 7 days.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)
- What this could lead to
- If one dosing schedule proves better, it could make stem cell donation more efficient and comfortable for healthy donors, improving transplant success.
- What could go wrong
- This is a single trial focused on Asian donors, so results may not apply to all populations. G-CSF can cause bone pain and other side effects.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age 18-65 years. 2. Provision of written informed consent. 3. White blood cell (WBC) count \> 2.5 × 10⁹/L. 4. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \> 1.5 × 10⁹/L and platelet count \> 100 × 10⁹/L. 5. Deemed suitable as a donor by the investigator based on donor physical examination and HLA matching. 6. Body weight ≥ 40 kg for females and ≥ 45 kg for males. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Currently having any disease or condition that, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the donor unsuitable for participation in this study, such as severe neurological, hepatic, renal, endocrine, cardiovascular, hematologic, gastrointestinal, respiratory, or metabolic diseases; malignancies; myeloproliferative disorders; or psychiatric illnesses. 2. Currently having an active infection requiring systemic therapy. 3. Allergy to the study drug. 4. Presence of a malignant tumor. 5. Untreated HBV infection with HBV-DNA above the lower limit of detection. 6. HIV infection. 7. Addition of any new medication within 2 weeks prior to entry into this study. 8. Female donors who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
