This study will be conducted to compare Axatilimab Versus Best Available Therapy in Pediatric Participants With Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease After at Least 2 Prior Lines of Systemic Therapy.
NCT03640481
This is a Phase 2, randomized, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KD025 in subjects with Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease (cGVHD) after at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy
NCT05121142
While hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is an effective therapy, graft versus host disease (GVHD) is the most significant complication after HSCT. Both acute GVHD and chronic GVHD are leading causes of non-relapse morbidity and mortality. Patients with solid organ transplants may participate in this study as well because these patients occasionally develop acute GVHD, which is biologically similar to acute GVHD after an HSCT. Acute graft versus host disease usually occurs within the first 100 days of transplant and can involve the skin, gut, or liver. Chronic graft versus host disease usually occurs after the first 100 days of transplant and can involve skin, eyes, mouth, joints, liver, intestines commonly. These two diseases are different, but both happen due to the imbalance of the donor immune system in the host. The purpose of this research is to learn more about ruxolitinib as a treatment for both acute and chronic GVHD. Specifically, the investigators would like to learn more about the pharmacokinetics (PK - the process of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination from the body - meaning how the drug moves through the body) and the pharmacodynamics (PD - the body's biological response to the drug) of ruxolitinib.
NCT03689894
Allogeneic stem cell transplant is used to treat a variety of blood cancers. However, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a common condition that may occur after transplant. GVHD happens when the donor cells attack and damage the recipients' tissue. The standard medication to treat chronic graft-versus-host-disease (cGVHD) is corticosteroids. However, there are long-term side effects of steroid therapy, including risk of infection, bone loss and other health problems. In addition, some patients with cGVHD do not respond to standard steroid therapy. In these cases, medications to suppress the immune system may be used. The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects, both good and bad, of combining the drugs ibrutinib and rituximab for the treatment of cGVHD. Ibrutinib is Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved for the treatment of cGVHD which has not responded to steroid therapy. Rituximab is an investigational drug, which means it is not FDA approved for this particular use. Rituximab is currently approved for treatment of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL), Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL), and other conditions, but is not FDA approved for the treatment of cGVHD. However, rituximab has been used in a clinic setting for the treatment of cGVHD in a number of patients over the past few years, and has generally been well tolerated and shown some benefit. The combination of ibrutinib and rituximab is being studied in the treatment of certain types of lymphoma and chronic leukemia, but it has not yet been combined for patients with cGVHD. Because ibrutinib is not approved for this use when combined with rituximab, it is considered investigational in this study. In this form, the term "study drug" refers to ibrutinib and rituximab. This study will involve people who have chronic GVHD, have previously taken corticosteroids, and have either not benefited from treatment with corticosteroids or have been unable to successfully taper off steroids.
