Comparing two conditioning regimens for haploidentical stem cell transplantation

Official title: Randomized Trial of Benadamustine Versus Ruxolitinib With Fludarabine and Busulfan Conditioning in Recipients of Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplantation

Run by St. Petersburg State Pavlov Medical University · NCT06477549 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing two different treatment plans for patients getting stem cell transplants from partially matched donors to see which one works better in preventing complications like graft failure and relapse.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older with specific hematologic malignancies who require allogeneic stem cell transplantation and have a haploidentical donor.

Probably not a fit

Patients with severe cardiac disease or high levels of anti-donor antibodies may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to compare two different conditioning regimens, BeFluBu and FluBuRux, in patients undergoing haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for various hematologic malignancies. The study focuses on reducing the rates of primary graft failure, relapse, and non-relapse mortality by evaluating the effectiveness of these regimens. Patients will be randomized into two groups based on their disease risk index and the age of their haploidentical donor. The trial includes patients with specific hematologic conditions who meet the eligibility criteria for transplantation.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved outcomes in stem cell transplantation, reducing graft failure and mortality rates.

How similar studies have gone: Previous studies have shown promising results with similar conditioning approaches, indicating potential for success in this trial.
