MT2024-25: Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant for Patients with High Risk Hemoglobinopathies and Other Red Cell Transfusion Dependent Disorders
This study’s strategy is to take a personalized approach, using a type of donor source combined with a drug regimen specific to that source. The common risks of a transplant approach include graft failure – when the transplant does not take; graft versus host disease (GVHD) – when the transplanted donor cells attack the recipient; and a late effect of infertility. We are studying whether this new approach with conditioning regimen matched with donor source is safer and more effective than our previous approach. Additionally, we are testing whether the dose of radiation will reduce the risk of graft failure.
