Trial Details
Posoleucel is made from VSTs. VSTs are a type of immune cell that know how to find and destroy viruses. In this trial, VSTs are previously collected from donors.
Everyone in the trial will get standard treatment if they develop an infection.
In this trial, you’ll be randomized to 1 of 2 groups. Once you’re randomized, you and the clinical trial doctors won’t know which group you’re in until after the trial is finished:
Group 1 – Posoleucel
Group 2 – Placebo
Randomized means doctors will use a computer to assign you to either group. A computer assigns you by chance, like flipping a coin or drawing a name out of a hat. You, your doctor or the clinical trial doctor won’t have any control over which group you’ll be assigned. This means you won’t be able to choose your group.
