Italian Network MDS Registry

Epidemiological data collection of adult patients affected by myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) newly diagnosed.

Tocilizumab for the Prevention of Graft Versus Host Disease After Cord Blood Transplantation

The aim of the research in this study is to make participants' transplant safer by reducing the risk of developing GVHD and GVHD-related complications by giving participants a dose of the drug tocilizumab in addition to the standard approach for GVHD prevention. Tocilizumab reduces the risk of inflammation by blocking the effect of Interleukin-6, a protein that exists in high levels in the blood when there is inflammation. Participants who receive stem cell transplants have high levels of this protein in their blood early after transplant. Therefore, the goal of this study is to reduce the risk of inflammation after transplant with the addition of Tocilizumab. This could decrease the risk of developing GVHD and GVHD-associated complications.

Clonal Hematopoiesis of Immunological Significance
