Preventing GvHD in patients with blood cancers undergoing stem cell transplants

Official title: Phase I, First in Human, Open Label Study to Evaluate Safety and Tolerability of TRX103 Cells in Subjects With Hematological Malignancies Undergoing HLA-mismatched Related or Unrelated Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT)

Run by Tr1X, Inc. · NCT06462365 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study is testing a new treatment called TRX-103 to see if it can help prevent graft-versus-host disease in people with blood cancers who are getting stem cell transplants from mismatched donors.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with specific hematological malignancies who are eligible for HSCT and have available mismatched donors.

Probably not a fit

Patients who have previously undergone allogeneic stem cell transplantation or those with uncontrolled infections may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This Phase 1 open-label study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TRX-103 in patients with hematological malignancies who are undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from HLA-mismatched donors. Up to 36 participants will be enrolled over an 18-24 month period, receiving a single infusion of TRX-103 post-transplant. The study focuses on patients with conditions such as Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Acute Myeloid Leukemia, and Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia. The primary goal is to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), a common complication following HSCT.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could significantly reduce the incidence of GvHD in patients undergoing stem cell transplants, improving their overall outcomes.

How similar studies have gone: While there have been studies addressing GvHD prevention, this approach with TRX-103 is novel and has not been previously tested in humans.

4. Karnofsky performance status ≥ 70 %.
5. Available mismatched related (haploidentical) or unrelated donors for peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donation.
6. Subjects must otherwise fulfill institutional criteria for eligibility to undergo allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
7. Absence of uncontrolled bacterial, viral or fungal infection at time of enrollment.
8. Have adequate organ function.
9. Subjects \> 65-year-old receiving MAC conditioning will only be eligible if they have a HSCT-comorbidity index score \< 5.
10. Subjects must be able to understand and sign informed consent and be willing and able to complete all specified procedures and visits.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Prior allogeneic bone marrow, peripheral blood, or cord blood HSCT.
