Summary
This phase 3 trial compares two drug combinations given after a stem cell transplant to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious complication where donor cells attack the patient's body. The study will enroll 572 adults with blood cancers like leukemia or myelodysplasia. One group gets tacrolimus, methotrexate, and ruxolitinib; the other gets cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil. The goal is to see which combination better prevents severe GVHD and improves survival.
