HLA-Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplant with Cyclophosphamide and Bortezomib

Official title: HLA-Haploidentical Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation With Post-transplant Cyclophosphamide and Bortezomib Following Fludarbine/Melphalan/Total Body Irradiation Conditioning Regimen

Run by Henry Ford Health System · NCT03850366 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing a new stem cell transplant method for patients with blood cancers who don't have a matched donor, using special medications to help their bodies accept the transplant and recover better.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18-65 with hematological malignancies who have a haploidentical donor but lack a matched related or unrelated donor.

Probably not a fit

Patients who have a suitable related or unrelated donor or cord blood units available for transplant will not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of HLA-haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation in patients with hematological malignancies who lack a suitable matched donor. It utilizes post-transplant cyclophosphamide and bortezomib to prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD) and enhance immune recovery. The goal is to assess the engraftment rate in these patients, providing a potential alternative for those without matched donors.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could provide a viable transplant option for patients with hematological malignancies who currently have limited donor availability.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar approaches, particularly in the use of post-transplant cyclophosphamide to reduce GVHD.
