Patient Fitness and Body Composition During Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
NCT02990130 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This proposal aims to characterize biochemical and physiologic factors that contribute to changes in patient fitness and body composition during hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) for hematologic malignancies. The study group will consist of 60 patients with hematologic malignancies treated with HCT. Measurements of patient fitness, body composition, and inflammatory milieu will be performed at visits before HCT, and 30 days (+/- 10 days) after HCT. For patients that continue to receive care at the Seattle VA, additional visits (not exceeding 6 total) may be requested periodically for up to 2 years after HCT.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT02990130
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT02990130 describes a study currently listed as active not recruiting. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 60 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Garcia, Jose M., MD, PhD, which has 2 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Hematologic Malignancy appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Observational is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT02990130 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Washington. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll. Verify current status, eligibility criteria, and contact details directly at ClinicalTrials.gov, and discuss any participation decision with your own healthcare provider.
