The new cells from the donor might see the body's cells as different and attack them. GVHD can be very serious and cause death. The standard first treatment for GVHD is corticosteroids but not all patients respond and in cases where they don't, they need to go onto other treatments that may or may not be effective. In addition, when GHVD involves the gut it can damage the cells of the gastrointestinal track causing long term problems such as abdominal pain and bowel disturbance. In laboratory studies giving a vitamin C has been able to protect the gastrointestinal cells and help them recover. In this trial the investigators would like to see if vitamin C can do the same thing when given with steroids in patients with GVHD.\n\nThe standard first treatment for acute GVHD is corticosteroids but not all patients respond and in cases where they don't, they need to go onto other treatments that may or may not be effective.
