Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy using decidual stromal cell therapy for graft versus host disease after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The hypothesis to be tested is that the cells are safe to infuse and that they have a positive clinical effect. Read more about this study

About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy using decidual stromal cell therapy for graft versus host disease after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The hypothesis to be tested is that the cells are safe to infuse and that they have a positive clinical effect.

Read the detailed description

Patients with GVHD grade 2-4, will receive decidual stromal cells at approximately 1x10^6 cells/kg at one or more occasions at weekly intervals dependent on clinical response.

  3. Incidence of severe infections

    Measured: Up to 12 months after inclusion

  4. Disease free survival

    Measured: 12 months after inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Early Decidual stromal cell therapy and Late Decidual stromal cell therapy in people with Graft vs Host Disease, run by Karolinska Institutet at 1 site in Sweden.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Nov 2014. 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 Sweden. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Olle Ringdén, MD, PhD (+46858582672, olle.ringden@ki.se), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Actuarial survival at one year after onset of graft versus host disease (time frame: 12 months after inclusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 11 Nov 2014.
