Dose Study of Antithymocyteglobulin in Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Acute Graft-versus-host Disease Prophylaxis
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating ATG for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 412 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the incidences of GVHD and viral infections in haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients receiving different dose of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) for acute graft-versus-host disease(aGVHD) prophylaxis. Our first objective was to investigate the optimal dose of ATG for aGVHD and second object was to evaluate the effect of different dose of ATG on post-transplant viral infection.

Timeline
Interventions
ATG will be intravenously infused via a central venous catheter in 3 or 4 days, from day -4 or -3 until day -1. The other conditioning drugs administered before transplantation include cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C), busulfan (Bu),cyclophosphamide (Cy), Semustine(Me-CCNU), and ATG. All transplant recipients will receive cyclosporine A (CsA), mycophenolate mofetil(MMF), and short-term methotrexate for aGVHD prevention.
