Acute-graft-versus-host disease

This trial tests whether the time at which stem cells are infused after a transplant affects the risk of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), a serious complication where donor cells attack the patient's body. It involves 198 patients with nonmalignant blood diseases receivin…

This trial tests whether adding leflunomide to standard steroid therapy can safely control acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in people who have had a stem cell transplant for blood cancer. aGVHD occurs when donor immune cells attack the patient's own body. Leflunomide and s…

This study is tracking the safety and effectiveness of the drug JAKAVI (ruxolitinib) in 395 patients with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a complication of bone marrow transplants. Researchers are monitoring infections and other side effects in patients receiving the drug in ro…

This study tests whether fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) can safely treat gut graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious complication after stem cell transplants. Researchers will track changes in stool frequency and volume in 50 participants aged 10 to 60. The goal is to…

This study tests whether moxibustion, a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves burning dried mugwort near the skin, can help people with a severe complication of stem cell transplants called graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) that does not respond to steroids. The tri…

This study tests a drug called ruxolitinib for treating acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious condition where donor cells attack the patient's body after a bone marrow transplant. About 98 adults with moderate to severe GVHD will receive either ruxolitinib alone or wi…

This early-phase trial is testing an experimental drug called AC-003 in 24 adults who have acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after a stem cell transplant and whose condition has not improved with steroids. The study aims to see if the drug is safe and tolerable, and to get …

This phase 3 trial is testing whether changing the timing of stem cell infusion after a single umbilical cord blood transplant can lower the risk of severe acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in people with blood cancers. The study will enroll 134 participants who are in remi…

This study tests a drug called gecacitinib (jaktinib) combined with steroids as a first treatment for acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious complication after stem cell transplants. About 35 adults who have had a stem cell transplant and develop moderate to severe GVH…

This study tests whether a dental cleaning shortly after a stem cell transplant can prevent chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a common and serious complication. Researchers will enroll 45 adults receiving a donor stem cell transplant for blood cancer. The goal is to see i…

This study looks at whether a home-based aerobic and resistance exercise program is feasible for adults with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant. Participants will either do aerobic and resistance exercises or simple stretching. The goal is to see if exe…
