The Safety and Efficacy of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) for the Prevention of Graft-versus-host Disease (GVHD) in Patients Receiving Hematopoietic Cell Transplant
Purpose
This study is a phase 2 / 3 prospective, double-blind, randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled study for prevention of acute GVHD (aGVHD) in participants undergoing an unrelated (matched or single allele mismatched) or matched related allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).
Condition
- Acute-graft-versus-host Disease
 
Eligibility
- Eligible Ages
 - Over 12 Years
 - Eligible Sex
 - All
 - Accepts Healthy Volunteers
 - No
 
Inclusion Criteria
- Male or female participants, >=12 years of age (>= 18 years of age for participants at German sites only), undergoing HCT for hematological malignancies, including leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, myelodysplastic syndrome, and myeloproliferative neoplasms. - Planned myeloablative conditioning regimen. - Participants must have a related or unrelated donor as follows: - Related donor must be a 6 / 6 match for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A, -B, at intermediate (or higher) resolution, and -DR beta 1 (DRB1) at high resolution using deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-based typing. - Unrelated donor must be 7 / 8 or 8 / 8 match for HLA-A, -B, and -C at intermediate (or higher) resolution, and -DRB1 at high resolution using DNA-based typing.
 
Exclusion Criteria
- Prior autologous or allogeneic HCT. - T cell depleted transplant or planned use of anti-T cell antibody therapy either ex vivo or in vivo (ie, anti thymocyte globulin [ATG], alemtuzumab) for GVHD prophylaxis. - Planned umbilical cord blood transplant. - Planned use of cyclophosphamide after HCT for GVHD prophylaxis. - Planned haploidentical donor.
