First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This early-phase study tests a new way to do stem cell transplants for people with advanced blood cancers like leukemia. Instead of using strong drugs to prevent complications, doctors add special immune cells (regulatory T-cells) to the transplant to help the body accept the new cells without attacking itself. The goal is to improve survival and reduce serious side effects like graft-versus-host disease. The study involves 66 participants and is currently active but not recruiting.
