Recruiting PHASE2 Myeloid Malignancy

New treatment option for Myeloid Malignancy

Official title Azacitidine and Chimerism in MDS or AML Patients After Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03850418

What this study is testing

What is azacitidine?

azacitidine is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for myeloid malignancy.

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
Previous studies provide a rationale for administration of AZA after allo SCT for decreasing chimerism. The investigators hypothesize that azacitidine can be well tolerated after SCT and help decrease rate of decreasing donor chimerism and hence decrease relapse without increasing GVHD
