Study on PTCy, Sirolimus, and VIC-1911 to Prevent GVHD in Stem Cell Transplant Patients
Sponsor: Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota
ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05120570
This clinical trial is testing a new combination of medications to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and cancer relapse in patients undergoing stem cell transplants. The study aims to find the safest and most effective dose of the new drug VIC-1911 when used with PTCy and Sirolimus.

Program Overview
The study is exploring a new treatment approach to prevent complications like GVHD and cancer relapse after a stem cell transplant. Patients will receive a combination of medications, including PTCy, Sirolimus, and a new drug called VIC-1911. The trial will determine the best dose of VIC-1911 that is both safe and effective. The treatment involves a series of steps, starting with a conditioning process using radiation, followed by the infusion of stem cells and administration of the study drugs.
Description
This study is designed to find the best dose of a new drug, VIC-1911, to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and cancer relapse in patients receiving a stem cell transplant. The trial is divided into two phases. In Phase I, researchers will determine the safest dose of VIC-1911 by monitoring for any side effects. In Phase II, they will evaluate how well the treatment works in preventing GVHD and relapse compared to past results.
Patients will undergo a conditioning process with total body irradiation (TBI) before receiving stem cells from a matched donor. Cyclophosphamide will be given on days 3 and 4 after the transplant. Sirolimus will start on day 5 and continue for a year. VIC-1911 will be taken orally twice a day from day 5 to day 45, with doses adjusted based on safety and effectiveness.
The study aims to improve outcomes for patients undergoing stem cell transplants by reducing the risk of GVHD and cancer returning.
