About this study
Official title: Phase 1-2 Trial for Patients With Advanced Hematologic Malignancies Undergoing Myeloablative Allogeneic HCT With a T-cell Depleted Graft With Infusion of Conventional T-cells and Regulatory T-cells
This study looks at giving specific types of immune cells, called regulatory T cells and conventional T cells, to patients with blood cancers who are receiving a stem cell transplant. These cells are added back to help the immune system recover and reduce complications after the transplant.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing CD34+ Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells (HSPC), Regulatory T-Cells (Treg) and Conventional T-Cells (Tcon) in people with Myeloid Leukemia, Chronic and Acute Myelogenous Leukemia, run by Stanford University 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?
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 19 Aug 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.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Aug 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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.
What does the primary outcome measure?
GvHD Free Relapse Free Survival (GRFS) (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01660607, which also lists 3 linked publications.
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 19 Aug 2025.
