MSCs vs placebo or control

Death during study period · patients with a haematological condition who receive a haematopoietic stem cell transplant as treatment for their condition.

MSCs showed no clear difference in all‐cause mortality (prophylactic trials) (over duration of trial) compared with control/placebo (low certainty).

MSCs vs placebo or control

Relapse of malignant disease (prophylactic trials) (>12‐month · patients with a haematological condition who receive a haematopoietic stem cell transplant as treatment for their condition.

MSCs showed no clear difference in relapse of malignant disease (prophylactic trials) (>12‐month compared with control/placebo (low certainty).

MSCs vs placebo or control

Incidence of acute GvHD (prophylactic trials) · patients with a haematological condition who receive a haematopoietic stem cell transplant as treatment for their condition.

MSCs showed no clear difference in incidence of acute GvHD (prophylactic trials) compared with control/placebo (low certainty).

MSCs vs placebo or control

Incidence of chronic GvHD (prophylactic trials) · patients with a haematological condition who receive a haematopoietic stem cell transplant as treatment for their condition.

MSCs may leads to lower incidence of chronic GvHD (prophylactic trials) compared with control/placebo (low certainty).

MSCs vs placebo or control

Acute GvHD complete response (therapeutic trials) · patients with a haematological condition who receive a haematopoietic stem cell transplant as treatment for their condition.

It is very uncertain whether MSCs changes acute GvHD complete response (therapeutic trials) compared with control/placebo (very low certainty).

MSCs vs placebo or control

Chronic GvHD complete response (therapeutic trials) · patients with a haematological condition who receive a haematopoietic stem cell transplant as treatment for their condition.

It is very uncertain whether MSCs changes chronic GvHD complete response (therapeutic trials) compared with control/placebo (very low certainty).
