Summary

This study tests whether adding special immune cells called veto cells can help donor stem cells grow safely after a transplant for blood cancers. The goal is to prevent graft-versus-host disease, where donor cells attack the patient's body. About 16 people aged 12 to 75 with various blood cancers are participating. The treatment is still experimental and aims to control the disease, not cure it.
