Fighting transplant infections with a Patient's own donor cells

NCT ID NCT01325636

Summary

This study tested a new cell therapy for patients who develop dangerous viral infections after a stem cell transplant and don't respond to standard antiviral drugs. Doctors collected special immune cells (T cells) from the patient's original stem cell donor, grew cells that could fight either CMV or adenovirus, and injected them into the patient. The main goal was to see if this treatment could reduce the amount of CMV virus in the blood within 21 days.
