uric acid and Graft vs Host Disease

uric acid has been researched along with Graft vs Host Disease in 7 studies

Uric Acid: An oxidation product, via XANTHINE OXIDASE, of oxypurines such as XANTHINE and HYPOXANTHINE. It is the final oxidation product of purine catabolism in humans and primates, whereas in most other mammals URATE OXIDASE further oxidizes it to ALLANTOIN.
uric acid : An oxopurine that is the final oxidation product of purine metabolism.
6-hydroxy-1H-purine-2,8(7H,9H)-dione : A tautomer of uric acid having oxo groups at C-2 and C-8 and a hydroxy group at C-6.
7,9-dihydro-1H-purine-2,6,8(3H)-trione : An oxopurine in which the purine ring is substituted by oxo groups at positions 2, 6, and 8.

Graft vs Host Disease: The clinical entity characterized by anorexia, diarrhea, loss of hair, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, growth retardation, and eventual death brought about by the GRAFT VS HOST REACTION.

Trial Outcomes

Number of Participant With Adverse Events (AE)

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. (NCT00513474)
Timeframe: Up to 71 months

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)

Control Group21

Percentage of Participants With Grades II to IV Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease (aGVHD)

"aGVHD severity was determined using International Bone Marrow Transplant Registry (IBMTR) scale stage and grade of the skin, liver and gut. Stage 1: Skin=maculopapular rash <25% of body surface; Liver=Bilirubin 2-3 mg/dL and Gut=500-999 mL diarrhea/day or peristent nausea with histologic evidence of GvHD. Stage 2: Skin=maculopapular rash 25-50% of body surface; Liver=Bilirubin 3.1-6 mg/dL and Gut=1000-1499 mL diarrhea/day. Stage 3: Skin=maculopapular rash >50% of body surface; Liver=Bilirubin 6.1-15 mg/dL and Gut=≥1500 mL diarrhea/day. Stage 4: Skin=generalized erythroderma with bulla formation; Liver=Bilirubin >15 mg/dL and Gut=severe abdominal pain.~Grade 1: Stage 1-2 rash; no liver or gut involvement. Grade II: Stage 3 rash, or stage 1 liver involvement, or stage 1 gut involvement. Grade III: None to stage 3 skin rash with stage 2-3 liver, or stage 2-4 gut involvement. Grade IV: Stage 4 skin rash, or stage 4 liver involvement." (NCT00513474)

Uric Acid Levels

Blood was collected and analyzed at a laboratory for serum uric acid levels reported in milligrams(mg)/deciliter(dL). Data is presented for those participants who experienced Grade II to IV aGVHD and those participants who did not experience Grade II to IV aGVHD at pre-transplant and post-transplant. (NCT00513474)
Timeframe: Pre-transplant Day -7 to Day -1 and Post-transplant Day 0 to Day 6
