Post Transplant Cyclophosphamide in Matched Unrelated Donor Stem Cell Transplantation for Hematological Malignancies

January 31, 2019 updated by: Andreza Alice Feitosa Ribeiro, Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein

Use of Post Transplant Cyclophosphamide as Graft Versus Host Disease Prophylaxis in Matched Unrelated Donor Stem Cell Transplantation for Hematological Malignancies, a Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial

This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of cyclophosphamide in patients receiving a bone marrow graft from a matched unrelated donor in overall survival, progression free survival and cumulative incidence of acute and chronic GvHD. Thirty patients will receive cyclophosphamide while twenty patients will receive antihuman T-lymphocyte immune globulin (ATG).
