The Blood and Marrow Transplant Clinical Trials Network (BMT CTN)
The BMT CTN is one of our longest-running, most collaborative and complex research partnerships. The BMT CTN sets out to evaluate promising therapeutic approaches in multi-institutional clinical trials, aiming to improve the outcomes of blood and marrow transplantation and other cellular therapies for patients facing life-threatening blood disorders. The BMT CTN leverages processes and data from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) that allows the BMT CTN to design and conduct these complex studies effectively.
It's funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the National Cancer Institute, in collaboration with biopharma companies. Other partners are the National Marrow Donor Program/Be the Match (NMDP) and the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW).
Established in 2001, our partnership with NMDP MCW is the foundation of a program led by experts in the field of hematopoietic cell transplantation and cellular therapy.
In sharing responsibility, Emmes manages study operations, NMDP looks after patient advocacy and contracting, and MCW takes care of scientific leadership.
