Study Summary

This trialstudies transplanting NiCord® or cord blood cells to treat blood cancers like leukemia, myelodysplasia, or lymphoma.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with certain blood cancers like leukemia or lymphoma who need a stem cell transplant and don't have a fully matched donor. They should be in good enough health to undergo the procedure, not pregnant, without active infections or other cancers, and have a back-up stem cell source.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares NiCord® (omidubicel), an advanced cord blood unit, with standard unmanipulated cord blood units for stem cell transplantation in patients with specific types of leukemia and lymphoma.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to the immune system's response to new cells, such as graft-versus-host disease, infection risks due to weakened immunity post-transplantation, infusion-related reactions, and complications from underlying conditions.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: NiCord® (omidubicel)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
NiCord® is a cryopreserved stem/progenitor cell based product comprised of: ex vivo expanded, umbilical cord blood-derived hematopoietic CD34+ progenitor cells (NiCord® cultured fraction (CF)) the non-cultured cell fraction of the same Cord Blood Unit (CBU) (NiCord® Non-cultured Fraction (NF)) consisting of mature myeloid and lymphoid cells. Both fractions, i.e. NiCord® CF and NiCord® NF, will be kept frozen until they are thawed and infused on the day of transplantation.
Group II: Unmanipulated CBU(s)Active Control1 Intervention
