ECP stands for extracorporeal photopheresis. It's a treatment, not a drug, and it's used for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).

From https://www.emedicinehealth.com:
What Is ECP for GVHD?

Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is a second-line treatment for GVHD that involves extracting white blood cells, treating them with UV light and medicine, and then re-injecting them into the patient.
