NCT ID NCT06083129

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This phase 3 trial tests two drugs, Thymoglobulin and Grafalon, to see which one better prevents graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients aged 50-70 with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. All participants receive a stem cell transplant from a matched unrelated donor. The study aims to reduce GVHD severity and improve recovery without increasing cancer relapse.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Thymoglobulin and Grafalon (anti-thymocyte globulins)
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could identify the better drug to prevent graft-versus-host disease, improving survival and quality of life for older leukemia patients after transplant.
What could go wrong
This is a head-to-head comparison of two existing drugs, so no breakthrough cure is expected. Results may show only a modest benefit, and individual responses can vary.
