Official title Defibrotide Dose-escalation for SOS Post-HSCT
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05987124
What this study is testing
What is Defibrotide?
Defibrotide is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for sinusoidal obstruction syndrome.
Also referred to as Defitelio.
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
- This research study is being done to determine the safety and tolerability of increasing doses of defibrotide within a single patient with sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS)/veno-occlusive disease (VOD) after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) associated with either kidney and/or lung impairment that has not obtained a complete response (CR) or progressed in severity with standard doses of defibrotide.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
