Recruiting PHASE1 Primary Graft Failure

New treatment option for Primary Graft Failure

Official title REVEAL Biomarkers of Engraftment After Alternative Donor HSCT

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03541889

What this study is testing

What is FLT imaging and TK1 blood measurements?

FLT imaging and TK1 blood measurements is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for primary graft failure.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The purpose of this study is to find new tests that could help determine if the newly infused bone marrow cells are growing well after bone marrow transplantation or if new bone marrow cells are needed. The Investigator will use FLT imaging, an investigational imaging test, and collect blood samples to investigate whether the cells are growing well.
