Randomized Trial Comparing Sirolimus and Tacrolimus Versus Cyclosporine and Methotrexate as Graft-versus-host Disease (GVHD) Prophylaxis After Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation
RandomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelPrevention
Summary
To evaluate if rapamune + tacrolimus immunosuppressive prophylaxis is better than the established therapy using cyclosporine and methotrexate, a Nordic prospective multicenter randomized study will be performed. Patients will be randomized to treatment with rapamune combined with tacrolimus, or the established therapy using cyclosporine and methotrexate.
