NCT ID NCT06615050

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 30 times

Summary

This study tests whether a new combination of drugs (tacrolimus, methotrexate, and ruxolitinib) works better than the standard combination (cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate) at preventing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in people receiving stem cell transplants for blood cancers. GVHD is a serious condition where donor cells attack the patient's body. The trial involves 572 adults and will measure how long patients live without severe GVHD or death. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two drug regimens.
