Summary

This study tests whether a dietary supplement called galacto-oligosaccharide (GOS) can prevent acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in people receiving a stem cell transplant. About 128 adults aged 18-80 will take GOS or a placebo to see if it helps keep gut bacteria healthy and reduces GVHD risk. The study has two phases: first to find the best dose, then to compare it against placebo.
