Study Summary

This study is to compare the efficacy and safety of defibrotide prophylaxis in addition to best supportive care versus best supportive care alone in the prevention of hepatic veno- occlusive disease (VOD) in adult and pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant who are at high risk or very high risk of developing VOD.

Primary Outcome

VOD-free survival is a composite of survival status and VOD occurrence as determined by modified Seattle criteria adjudicated by a blinded independent EPAC. An event is defined as a VOD diagnosis (as assessed by the EPAC) or death, whichever, is earlier, up to and including Day +30 post-HSCT. The values reported below are participants who did not experience VOD or death by Day +30 post-HSCT.
