Conditions:

Graft Versus Host Disease

Eligibility:

All Genders

18-60 years

Phase:

PHASE2

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to test whether a new drug named visilizumab would decrease the severity of graft-versus-host disease in patients treated with a mismatched donor. Investigators planned t...

Detailed Description

The protocol plan was a two stage, controlled, phase II study to assess safety and compare the grade of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) with visilizumab, or Anti-thymocyte Globulin (ATG) in com...
