Graft Versus Host Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
So this a Phase I study with primary objective to determine the feasibility and safety of combining post-transplant cyclophosphamide and urinary-derived human chorionic gonadotropin and epidermal growth factor (uhCG/EGF) as graft versus host disease prophylaxis in stem cell transplant with MMUDs Secondary objectives are to determine the incidence acute and chronic GVHD, progression-free survival , and overall survival
Interventions
PTCY for 2 doses on day +3 and +4 after stem cell transplant followed by uhCG/EGF subcutaneously on day +7, +9 and +11 post stem cell transplant

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| MTD | day+30 post SCT | The maximum tolerated dose |
| Incidence and severity of dose limiting toxicity (DLTs) | day+30 post SCT | The overall incidence and severity of DLTs for uhCG/EGF |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| acute GVHD | till day +100 post SCT | Cumulative incidence of acute GVHD |
| Chronic GVHD | one year post SCT | Cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD |
| Overall survival | one year post SCT | Death from any cause will be considered an event. Surviving patients will be censored at the time of last follow up. |
| Disease free survival | one year | Survival following allogeneic SCT without relapse or progression. Relapse or progression of disease, or death are considered events |
