Prevention of Graft-Versus-Host Disease in Patients Undergoing Bone Marrow Transplantation

This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants.

Sponsored by: Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center
Information provided by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00003538
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Bone marrow transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill tumor cells. Sometimes the transplanted cells can make an immune response against the body's normal tissues. Stem cells that have been treated in the laboratory to remove lymphocytes may prevent this from happening.

PURPOSE: Clinical trial to prevent graft-versus-host disease in patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation.


Condition Intervention
Cancer
Procedure: allogeneic bone marrow transplantation
Procedure: graft versus host disease prophylaxis/therapy

Study Type:   Interventional
Study Design:   Supportive Care
Official Title:   Stem Cell Augmented, Elutriated Grafts for Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation

Further study details as provided by National Cancer Institute (NCI):

Study Start Date:   March 1997

Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine whether stem cell augmented, elutriated grafts prevent graft versus host disease in patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.

OUTLINE: Patients receive elutriated CD34+ augmented donor bone marrow on day 0.

Bone marrow samples are obtained before day 100, around 6 months, and 1 year after transplant.
