Summary
This trial is testing a drug to see if it can help prevent GVHD in kids who've had a blood or marrow transplant.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for children, adolescents, and young adults aged 3 to 39 who are undergoing allogeneic BMT for various blood cancers and diseases. They must have a matched donor, be able to take oral medication, use contraception if of reproductive age, understand consent forms in English (if participating in cognitive assessments), have a performance score of at least 70%, and expect to live more than six months.
What is being tested?
The study tests whether Vorinostat can prevent Graft vs Host Disease when added to standard prevention treatments after an allogeneic BMT. The goal is also to find the safest dose of Vorinostat for phase 2 trials in these patients.
What are the potential side effects?
Vorinostat may cause side effects like fatigue, digestive issues, changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems. Other drugs used alongside may also contribute similar side effects.
