Studying a New Medicine for Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a condition where the donor's cells from a stem cell transplant attack the patient's body, thinking it is not their own. The purpose of this study is to learn more about a new medicine called vimseltinib to see if it is safe and helps people with this condition. The medicine may help by calming down the immune system. Researchers want to find the best dose with the fewest side effects.

Early Detection Matters
The purpose of this study is to test recruitment methods to find and sign up people for a blood screening study. The results will help us decide if we can do a bigger study later. You are invited to join because you are at least 30 years old, self-identify as Black and/or African American or are at higher risk for developing MGUS because of a first-degree relative and, live in Charlotte, NC or nearby. This study will also check how many people have a blood condition that might lead to blood cancer.
