Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Patients With Thalassemia Major: A Multicenter, Prospective Clinical Study

Registration Number
NCT04009525
Lead Sponsor
First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University
Brief Summary

The only curative therapy for thalassemia major remains the replacement of the defective erythropoiesis by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT). We conduct a prospective multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy of allo-HSCT in the treatment of thalassemia major.

Detailed Description

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is one of the established curative option for thalassemia major (TM). Previous study has predicted that more than 90% of TM patients can survive after allo-HSCT with a thalassemia-free survival (TFS) in around 80% of them.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of allo-HSCT in the treatment of thalassemia major.
