New treatments for severe acute GVHD after stem cell transplant
Treatments studied
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests new medications for people who develop severe acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) within 100 days after their first stem cell transplant. The goal is to find safer, more effective ways to control aGVHD and improve recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have had a first stem cell transplant for a blood cancer or other blood disorder.
- You must develop severe acute GVHD within 100 days after the transplant.
- You cannot have received prior treatment for acute GVHD or certain other therapies (like JAK inhibitors).
- You should not have other serious organ problems, uncontrolled infections, or a history of certain infections (like HIV or active hepatitis).
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You need adequate blood cell counts and kidney function.

This study tests a new first-line therapy for patients who develop grade II acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after their first stem cell transplant. It aims to find better ways to treat this complication.
This trial tests a new way to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), a common complication after a stem cell transplant. It is for people with certain blood cancers who are getting a stem cell transplant from a half-matched family member or unrelated donor.
This trial tests whether starting ruxolitinib early, guided by a blood marker, can prevent acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after a stem cell transplant. It's for people who have already had a transplant and are at risk for this complication.
This trial tests a drug called ruxolitinib for treating acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), a common complication after a stem cell transplant. It may help control the immune reaction without using high doses of steroids.
This trial tests whether adding stem cells (remestemcel-L) to ruxolitinib—a medication that helps control the immune system—can help treat severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) that hasn't responded to steroids. GVHD is a complication after bone marrow or stem cell transplant where the new immune cells attack your body.
This trial tests whether adding ruxolitinib to standard steroid treatment works better than steroids alone for people with moderate to severe chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). cGVHD is a condition where donor immune cells attack the body after a stem cell transplant.
