New transplant method aims to cut dangerous immune reaction in half-matched donors
NCT ID NCT05236764
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a stem cell transplant method that removes certain immune cells from the donor's blood to lower the chance of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), a serious complication. It involves 3 patients with blood cancers or non-cancerous blood disorders who lack a perfectly matched donor. The goal is to see if this filtering approach allows safe transplant without long-term anti-rejection drugs.
