Special blood storage could cut transfusions for cancer patients

NCT ID NCT06685848

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether red blood cells stored with less oxygen (hypoxic RBCs) are safer and more effective than standard transfusions for people with blood cancers who need regular blood. About 24 adults with transfusion-dependent blood cancers will receive both types of blood in a random order. The goal is to see if the special cells reduce the number of transfusions needed over time.
