Pilot Study of Mechanical Stimulation for Prevention of Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Associated Bone Density Loss
This pilot clinical trial studies mechanical stimulation in preventing bone density loss in
patients undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Mechanical stimulation may limit, prevent,
or reverse bone loss, increase muscle and cardiac performance, and improve overall health
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the feasibility of a mechanical stimulation regimen in hematopoietic cell
transplant (HCT) patients.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the data collection tools to prepare for a larger phase II trial.
OUTLINE:
Patients undergo mechanical stimulation over 20 minutes once daily (QD) beginning on date of
hospital admission and continuing through day 100 post-HCT, except for day 0 (date of
transplant).
