Official title
A Prospective Randomized Comparative Study of the Effect on Infections of Radiated Prophylactic White Cell Transfusions Versus Therapeutic Radiated White Cell Transfusions
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Patients with leukemia often have low white blood cell counts after chemotherapy, which puts them at greater risk for infection. The standard of care for preventing infections is to give these patients antibiotic, antifungal, and antiviral drugs during the time that white blood cell counts are low. However, many patients still develop infections during chemotherapy. Radiated white blood cell transfusions are a standard treatment once a patient develops a severe infection. The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if giving unirradiated white blood cell transfusions early in chemotherapy might delay or prevent infections in patients with leukemia. Researchers also want to learn more about the type and severity of any infections that do occur.
