Official title
A Phase 1/2 Study of Baricitinib, a JAK1/2 Inhibitor, in Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease (cGVHD) After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (SCT)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Background: Chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) can affect people who had a hematopoietic stem cell transplant using donor cells. It is often fatal. It is usually treated with high doses of steroids. But that helps only about half the people in the long term. Researchers want to see if a drug called baricitinib can help people with cGVHD that has not responded to therapy. The drug inhibits the proteins involved in communication in the immune system. These proteins may play a role in cGVHD and other inflammatory diseases. Objectives: To test the safety and effectiveness of baricitinib in people with cGVHD that has not responded to therapy. Eligibility: Adults 18 and older with cGVHD that has not responded to therapy. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. They will have lung and heart tests and chest scans. Baseline visit: Participants will have: Medical history Physical exam Blood tests Tests for infectious diseases Skin, eye, and teeth evaluations Rehabilitation and occupational medicine evaluations Photos of any lesions Gynecology evaluation (females) The study will occur in 28-day cycles. Participants will take the study drug by mouth every day for 3 cycles. Some will take it for 3 or 6 more cycles. Participants will have a few visits during each cycle. They will repeat some previous tests. They may also have scans and questionnaires. Participants will have a visit when they stop taking the drug and another 3 months later. They will repeat a few study tests. They will have follow-up calls for 2 years.
