NCT ID NCT06008808

First seen Jan 12, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 17 times

Summary

This early-phase study tests whether two drugs, ruxolitinib and abatacept, can prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and cytokine release syndrome in 41 blood cancer patients receiving a half-matched stem cell transplant. The goal is to reduce dangerous immune reactions while preserving the transplant's cancer-fighting effect. Participants will take the drugs for a limited time after transplant, but long-term immunosuppression may still be needed.
