Steroid-resistant Severe aGVHD
Conditions
Brief summary
Steroid-resistant acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is one of the most severe complications in the setting of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), which cannot be significant benefit from the second-line therapies.The mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess extensive immunomodulatory properties and are very promising to rescue the refractory aGVHD.This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of MSCs for the treatment of the refractory aGVHD.
