Clinical Trial Description

This feasibility study will be used to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a hospice-embedded home transfusion program to patients with hematologic malignancies. All enrolled subjects will be patients cared for at Dana Farber Cancer Institute. This study is a single-arm study of 10 patients with advanced hematologic malignancies who have a limited life-expectancy of six months or fewer and are hospice eligible. 10 Caregivers of enrolled patients will also be invited to participate if interested. This research study involves completing questionnaires, a brief interview, blood draws, and blood transfusions when needed. Participants will be in the research study for up to six months.
