Could goat milk help prevent a deadly transplant side effect?
NCT ID NCT04177004
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-phase study tests whether drinking milk from genetically engineered goats (which produce a human enzyme found in breast milk) can reduce the risk of graft versus host disease—a serious immune reaction—in blood cancer patients receiving a donor stem cell transplant. About 52 participants will drink the milk daily during their hospital stay to see if it is safe and tolerable. The goal is to find a new way to protect patients without using extra drugs.
