Trial Information

Phase III Randomized Study of Cyclophosphamide With or Without Antithymocyte Globulin Before Bone Marrow Transplantation in Patients With Aplastic Anemia


PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are randomized to
receive cyclophosphamide IV over 60 minutes on days -5 to -2 with or without antithymocyte
globulin IV over 4 hours.

All patients then receive bone marrow over 60-120 minutes on day 0, 36 hours after the last
dose of cyclophosphamide.

Patients are followed at day 100, at 6 months, and at 1 year posttransplant.
