ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is focused on collecting information about patients with certain non-cancerous disorders who are receiving stem cell transplants. Specifically, the study is looking at how a gentler type of chemotherapy, combined with a medication called alemtuzumab, can help prevent complications and support the immune system recovery after a transplant. The conditions being studied include primary immunodeficiencies, inherited blood disorders, metabolic disorders, and some inflammatory conditions.
To participate in this study, patients need to be between 2 months and 60 years old and have a disorder that can be treated with a stem cell transplant. Parents or guardians must provide written consent for younger patients. Participants will receive either umbilical cord blood, bone marrow, or stem cells from their own blood, along with the specified chemotherapy regimen. There are no specific exclusion criteria, meaning most patients with the eligible conditions may have the opportunity to join. This study is currently recruiting participants, and it aims to gather valuable data that can help improve treatment options for these disorders in the future.
