New hope to stop dangerous transplant complication

NCT ID NCT02891603

Summary

This study tested if adding a drug called pacritinib to standard anti-rejection medicines could better prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant. It involved 40 patients with blood cancers who received matched donor transplants. Researchers measured inflammation levels and tracked whether patients developed GVHD to see if the three-drug combination was more effective.
