Trial Review

Did you know?

The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.

These enhancements will offer a more comprehensive view of trials, regardless of whether their results are positive, negative, or inconclusive.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Outcomes

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Male or female patients age =28 days and <18 years at the time of informed consent.
* Patients who have undergone alloSCT from any donor source (matched unrelated donor, sibling, haplo-identical) using bone marrow, peripheral blood stem cells, or cord blood. Recipients of myeloablative or reduced intensity conditioning are eligible.
* Patients with a clinically confirmed diagnosis of grades II-IV aGvHD within 48 hours prior to study treatment start. Patients may have either: Treatment-naïve aGvHD (criteria per Harris et al. 2016) OR Steroid refractory aGvHD as per institutional criteria, or per physician decision in case institutional criteria are not available, and the patient is currently receiving systemic corticosteroids.
* Evident myeloid engraftment with ANC > 1,000/µl and platelet count >20,000/µl. (Use of growth factor supplementation and transfusion support is allowed.)
Minimum age
28 Days
Maximum age
17 Years
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
* Has received the following systemic therapy for aGvHD: a) Treatment-naïve aGvHD patients have received any prior systemic treatment of aGvHD except for a maximum 72h of prior systemic corticosteroid therapy of methylprednisolone or equivalent after the onset of acute GvHD. Patients are allowed to have received prior GvHD prophylaxis which is not counted as systemic treatment (as long as the prophylaxis was started prior to the diagnosis of aGvHD); OR b) SR-aGvHD patients have received two or more prior systemic treatments for aGvHD in addition to corticosteroids
* Clinical presentation resembling de novo chronic GvHD or GvHD overlap syndrome with both acute and chronic GvHD features (as defined by Jagasia et al 2015).
* Failed prior alloSCT within the past 6 months.
* Presence of relapsed primary malignancy, or who have been treated for relapse after the alloSCT was performed, or who may require rapid immune suppression withdrawal of immune suppression as pre-emergent treatment of early malignancy relapse.
* Acute GvHD occurring after non-scheduled donor leukocyte infusion (DLI) administered for pre-emptive treatment of malignancy recurrence. Note: Patients who have received a scheduled DLI as part of their transplant procedure and not for management of malignancy relapse are eligible.
* Any corticosteroid therapy for indications other than aGvHD at doses > 1 mg/kg/day methylprednisolone (or equivalent prednisone dose 1.25 mg/kg/day) within 7 days of Screening. Routine corticosteroids administered during conditioning or cell infusion is allowed.
* Patients who received JAK inhibitor therapy for any indication after initiation of current alloSCT conditioning.

Other protocol-defined Inclusion/Exclusion may apply.

Summary
Brief summary
The study is an open-label, single-arm, Phase I/II multi-center study to investigate the PK, activity and safety of ruxolitinib added to the patient's immunosuppressive regimen in infants, children, and adolescents ages =28 days to \<18 years old with either grade II-IV aGvHD or grade II-IV SR-aGvHD. The trial design includes four age groups: Group 1 includes patients =12y to \<18y, Group 2 includes patients =6y to \<12y, Group 3 includes patients =2y to \<6y, and Group 4 includes patients =28days to \<2y.
