Preventing Graft Rejection After Stem Cell Transplant
This study is investigating emapalumab, a drug that targets a specific pathway (RAF) involved in the immune system, to see if it can prevent graft rejection in people who have received a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Graft rejection happens when the body's immune system attacks the new stem cells. Researchers believe that a substance called interferon gamma plays a key role in this process, and emapalumab works by blocking it. Participants will be high-risk for graft rejection, meaning they have certain factors like a mismatched donor or a history of rejection. They will receive either a 3 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg dose of emapalumab once, with the possibility of up to two additional doses if there are concerns about rejection. The main goal is to see how well emapalumab works to prevent rejection after 100 days. The study aims to enroll 20 participants.
