Doctors test if less medication can prevent deadly transplant complication

NCT ID NCT05238155

Summary

This study looked at whether giving liver transplant patients a lower dose of anti-rejection drugs could help prevent a rare but deadly complication called graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Researchers followed 100 adult transplant recipients for a year to see if this approach reduced GVHD without increasing the risk of the body rejecting the new liver. The goal was to find a safer balance in long-term medication management after transplant.
