First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 34 times
Summary
This study follows 500 adults and children who are getting a stem cell transplant to see how their liver is affected. Researchers will track liver function, perform biopsies and scans, and look for factors that lead to liver damage. The goal is to better understand and eventually prevent liver problems after transplant.
