About this study

Official title: Impact of HLA Matching on Outcome in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Unrelated Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation.

The aim of this protocol is to clarify the role of HLA matching in unrelated umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation and to identify the level of HLA matching required assuring successful outcome of unrelated UCB transplantation.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this protocol is to clarify the role of HLA matching in unrelated umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation and to identify the level of HLA matching required assuring successful outcome of unrelated UCB transplantation.

The study will answer the following questions:

  1. Is HLA matching beneficial to unrelated UCB transplantation?
  2. Which HLA loci, HLA-A, B, C, DRB1, or BQB1 is/are important to math, or alternatively to mismatch, to improve graft survival?
  3. Which HLA loci, HLA-A, B, C, DRB1, or BQB1 mismatches is/are "permissive mismatches" or well tolerated mismatches?
  4. What level of typing resolution (low, intermediate, or hgh) is required to perform patient/donor H:A matching?

By studying the cells and blood of donors and recipients, we may learn more about improving the tissue matching between unrelated donors and their recipients. Also, we hope to learn if an additional level of matching testing improves the results of the transplant treatment. Increasing knowledge about tissue matching could result in the improved long-term survival of cord blood transplant recipients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hematologic Diseases, run by Ann & Robert H Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jan 2025.
