NCT ID NCT04448184

First seen Jan 10, 2026 · Last updated Apr 24, 2026 · Updated 14 times

Summary

This study tests whether a medicine called tranexamic acid (TXA) can safely replace routine platelet transfusions to prevent bleeding in adults receiving a stem cell transplant for blood cancer. About 662 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either TXA with platelet transfusions only if needed, or standard preventive platelet transfusions. The goal is to see which approach better reduces serious bleeding events.
