New hope for rare blood disorder: gentler transplant trial seeks to save lives

NCT ID NCT02143830

Summary

This study is testing a modified stem cell transplant procedure for patients with Fanconi anemia who have developed severe blood problems like bone marrow failure or leukemia. The goal is to see if using lower doses of certain chemotherapy drugs and removing another medication can reduce dangerous side effects while still allowing the transplant to work. The procedure uses stem cells from a partially matched family member or an unrelated donor.
