Blood test could predict chronic GVHD after transplant
NCT ID NCT07539220
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at blood samples from 1500 stem cell transplant patients to find markers that can predict chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), a serious complication. Researchers will use mass spectrometry to analyze proteins in the blood and combine this with patient data to build a prediction model. The goal is to help doctors catch cGVHD earlier, especially when symptoms are hard to spot.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a blood test that helps doctors predict and diagnose chronic GVHD earlier, improving patient care.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The biomarkers identified may not prove accurate in real-world use, and results may not apply to all patients.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with hematological disease survived more than 3 months after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). 2. Over 18 years old. 3. Written informed consent or a waiver by the Ethics Committee (EC) at the site. 4. HIV negative, HBV, HCV negative. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Previous autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplantation before enrollment. 2.
