Transplant Wellness Clinic for Elderly or High Risk Patients Undergoing BMT

Pilot Study to Develop a Transplant Wellness Clinic for Elderly or High Risk Patients Undergoing Blood and Marrow Transplantation

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 Aug 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

As the average age of individuals undergoing stem cell transplant continues to increase, challenges associated with balancing the side effects of cancer treatments while also managing other medical conditions develop. Studies have shown these individuals develop more treatment related side effects and take longer to leave the hospital due to complications. The purpose of this study is to develop a multiple provider clinic that will help identify any additional needs in the more complicated and generally older transplant patient population. If needed, this clinic will recommend interventions or referrals to the appropriate specialties to the participant and the transplant physician for the participant before your transplant procedure. Examples of potential areas of improvement include a course of physical therapy, nutritional supplements, or modifications of medications, among others with the goal to make your transplant safer and to decrease length of time in the hospital.
