Summary

The purpose of this research is to compare the effectiveness of Tacrolimus and Rapamycin to Tacrolimus and Methotrexate in the prevention of severe graft-versus-host-disease. Graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) is a risk associated with allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplants (HCT). An allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant is a transplant using bone marrow and blood cells that come from someone other than the patient (a donor).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria
