- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Incidence of occurence of any GvHD. Acute GvHD is documented according to the modified Seattle Glucksberg criteria (also termed the Consensus criteria) for grading of acute GvHD. Staging of chronic GVHD is performed using a standardized staging form of the German-Austrian-Swiss Consortium for GvHD. 10 visits within 6 months after T-cell therapy.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method - Incidences of transfusion-related adverse events<br>- Response rate to antifungal therapy by favourable outcome (PR and CR), stable disease (SD), and unfavourable outcome (PD)<br>- Mortality (overall and IFD attributable)<br>- Surrogate markers of invasive aspergillosis (i.e., galactomannan)<br>- Assessing the general (i.e. CD3, CD4 and CD8 counts) and specific immune reconstitution regarding various infectious diseases (i.e. Aspergillus-specific, CMV and EBV)<br>- Assessing the feasibility of the timely generation of donor-derived anti-Aspergillus T cells<br>
