Study Summary

This trial is for adult patients with blood cancers who are undergoing a stem cell transplant from a matched donor. The patients will receive standard care, as well as investigational drugs to help prevent GvHD.

Who is the study for?
Adults with blood cancers eligible for a stem cell transplant from a matched donor can join. They must have good organ function, no severe infections, and be willing to follow the study plan. Pregnant women, those with recent heart issues or another cancer within 3 years (with some exceptions), or who cannot consent are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests high-dose Cyclophosphamide, Bortezomib, and Abatacept as preventatives for Graft-versus-Host Disease after allogeneic HSCT in adults. It's a phase I-II study assessing the safety and effectiveness of these drugs post-transplant.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include immune system suppression leading to increased infection risk, potential damage to organs like the liver and kidneys, allergic reactions to medication components, gastrointestinal issues, and fatigue.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Participants with hematological malignanciesExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) will receive a combination of cyclophosphamide, known commercially as Cytoxan®, abatacept, known as Orecia® and bortezomib commercially known as Velcade®, to reduce the rate of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). These medications will be given for GvHD prevention during the transplant process.

Answered by AI

Does this study accommodate participants over the age of seventy-five?

"According to the requirements for entry into this clinical trial, an individual must be aged 18 or over and no older than 100."

Answered by AI

Who meets the criteria for joining this research project?

"For this clinical trial, 74 adults who have been diagnosed with graft vs host disease and meet the additional criteria (age ≥18 years, Karnofsky score ≥70%, no evidence of progressive bacterial, viral or fungal infection; creatinine clearance >50 mL/min/1.72m2; ALT & AST <3x upper limit of normal total bilirubin <2x ULN [except for Gilbert's syndrome]; alkaline phosphatase ≤250 IU/L; LVEF >45%; adjusted DLCO >50% and negative HIV serology) are required to be recruited within the age range"
