Summary

This study tested a new drug combination (pacritinib, sirolimus, and tacrolimus) to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in 40 blood cancer patients receiving a stem cell transplant from a matched donor. GVHD is a serious condition where donor cells attack the patient's body. The goal was to see if this approach is safe and reduces GVHD risk. Participants were monitored for side effects and signs of GVHD.
