FDA approves TREGZI for Treg cell immunotherapy in blood cancer transplants
FDA · Announcement
If you are an adult with a blood cancer who is having an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, the FDA has approved TREGZI, a regulatory T (Treg) cell-based immunotherapy.
Allogeneic transplantation uses donor stem cells. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is when donor immune cells attack your body; the approval is for chronic GVHD-free survival.
The approval was announced on 2026-06-30. If you are being considered for this transplant, ask your transplant team whether TREGZI is part of your treatment plan.
