Safety and Efficacy of Prophylactic Defibrotide in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Sickle Cell Disease or Beta Thalassemia Following MAC and Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplantation Utilizing CD34 Enrichment and T-Cell (CD3) Addback
New York Medical College
Summary
This is a follow-up trial to NYMC 526 (NCT01461837) to assess the safety, efficacy and toxicity of administering Defibrotide prophylaxis for high-risk sickle cell or beta thalassemia patients undergoing a familial haploidentical allogeneic stem cell transplantation with CD34 enrichment and T-cell addback. This patient population historically has a risk of developing sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS) and Defibrotide has demonstrated efficacy in treatment of SOS. The Funding Source is FDA OOPD.
