Reconstruction kinetics of γδ T cells after an unrelated cord blood transplant

Official title: Reconstruction Kinetics of γδ T Cells and Their Clinical Impact After Unrelated Cord Blood Transplantation

Run by Anhui Provincial Hospital · NCT07782684 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study tests how γδ T cells recover after an unrelated cord blood transplant and whether recovery patterns relate to outcomes like graft-versus-host disease, relapse, and survival.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults undergoing their first unrelated cord blood transplant for hematologic malignancies or disorders and who can provide informed consent.

Probably not a fit

Patients who do not show meaningful γδ T cell recovery patterns or have outcomes not linked to immune reconstitution may not derive direct benefit.

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

What this trial studies

This is a prospective, observational study in adults undergoing allogeneic cord blood transplantation for hematologic diseases. The research tracks γδ T cell reconstitution over time using regular blood samples and flow cytometry to measure cell numbers, proportions, and functional subsets. The goal is to see if specific γδ T cell recovery patterns predict key clinical outcomes and identify biomarkers to guide future immunotherapies. The study does not involve an intervention beyond the transplant itself and observational monitoring. Findings could inform strategies to optimize immune recovery after cord blood transplantation.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the study could identify γδ T cell patterns that forecast outcomes and guide future therapies to improve immune reconstitution and prognosis.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have begun to link immune reconstitution patterns with outcomes, but detailed γδ T cell kinetic profiling after cord blood transplantation remains exploratory.
