Study Summary

This trial is testing a drug to see if it can prevent a long-term complication from a bone marrow transplant.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 who've had a stem cell transplant for blood cancer can join this trial if they're doing well post-transplant (60+ days), have no relapse, and their body is making enough blood cells. They must match their donor in certain genes, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, and agree to use birth control. People with prior chronic GVHD, active infections, recent immune-depleting treatments or participation in other cGVHD trials can't join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Obinutuzumab against a placebo to prevent chronic Graft vs. Host Disease after allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Participants will randomly receive either the drug or placebo to see if it helps stop the condition where transplanted cells attack the patient's body.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Obinutuzumab might cause allergic reactions, lower resistance to infections, and possibly affect fertility. Since its effects on unborn children are unknown, precautions like using contraception are required during the trial.

Could you please tell me how many different hospitals are conducting this research project?

"Currently, this trial is being conducted at 5 locations. 3 of these are in Boston, Palo Alto and Salt Lake City with 2 other undisclosed sites. If you are considering participating in this study, please choose the location nearest to you to reduce travel time and effort."

Answered by AI

How many people are signing up for this clinical trial?

"Roche-Genentech, the sponsor of this study, needs to enroll 200 eligible patients from different clinical trial sites. For example, potential enrollees could be seen at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston or Stanford University in Palo Alto."

Answered by AI

Could you please provide some background on Obinutuzumab research?

"Currently, there are 103 ongoing studies evaluating Obinutuzumab. 18 of those active studies are in the critical third phase. Most of the research for Obinutuzumab is conducted in La Jolla, California; however, there are 486 clinical trial sites across the United States."

Answered by AI

Has Obinutuzumab been cleared by the FDA?

"Obinutuzumab falls into the Phase 2 category, which suggests that while there is some safety data available, none exists to support efficacy. Our team scored it a 2."

Answered by AI

Are people currently being recruited for this experiment?

"Yes, this information is accurate. The clinical trial in question was first posted on November 29th, 2016 and is actively recruiting participants as of June 22nd, 2022."
