Summary

This study is developing a questionnaire specifically for children and teens (ages 5-17) who have chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to create a tool that accurately captures how bothersome their symptoms are, since current scales are designed for adults. About 139 children and their parents will help test and refine the questionnaire through interviews and surveys.
