Could dropping one drug make stem cell transplants safer?
NCT ID NCT05256537
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 06, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether it is safe to remove one immune-suppressing drug, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), from the standard treatment plan after a stem cell transplant for blood cancers. Sixty adults aged 18 to 75 will receive the transplant without MMF and be monitored for up to two years. The main goal is to see if the donated stem cells still grow properly without this drug.
