New treatment option for Severe Aplastic Anemia
Official title MT2023-20: Hematopoietic Cell Transplant With Reduced Intensity Conditioning and Post-transplant Cyclophosphamide for Severe Aplastic Anemia and Other Forms of Acquired Bone Marrow Failure.
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06412497
What this study is testing
What is Rituximab?
Rituximab is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for severe aplastic anemia.
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
- A phase II trial of a reduced intensity conditioned (RIC) allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for idiopathic severe aplastic anemia (SAA), paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), acquired pure red cell aplasia (aPRCA), or acquired amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (aAT) utilizing population pharmacokinetic (popPK)-guided individual dosing of pre-transplant conditioning and differential dosing of low dose total body irradiation based on age, presence of myelodysplasia and/or clonal hematopoiesis.
- 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.
