Ruxolitinib for Newly Diagnosed Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome

October 18, 2022 updated by: First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University

Ruxolitinib for Newly Diagnosed Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Lung is one of the target organs in chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) after allo-HSCT was a clinical syndrome characterized by persistent airflow restriction which is the result of lung cGVHD. BOS is one of the main causes of late mortality after allo-HSCT, severely restricting the daily activities and respiratory function of patients. It limits the quality of life and increased the non-relapse mortality (NRM) after allo-HSCT. Currently, the first-line treatment for BOS is FAM ( oral fluticasone, azithromycin and montelukast). However, more than 50% of patients develop as steroids resistant (SR)-BOS, and SR-BOS has a poor prognosis and irreversible impaired lung function. Ruxolitinib is an effective drug in the treatment of SR-cGVHD. This is a phase Ⅱ prospective clinical study to explore the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib as a first-line treatment for newly diagnosed BOS after allo-HSCT.

Detailed Description

The incidence of chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) was 30%-70%, Which extremely limited the quality of life and the survival of patients after allo-HSCT. Lung is one of the target organs in cGVHD after allo-HSCT. Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) after allo-HSCT was a clinical syndrome characterized by persistent airflow restriction which is the result of lung cGVHD. BOS is one of the main causes of late mortality after allo-HSCT, severely restricting the daily activities and respiratory function of patients. It limits the quality of life and increased the non-relapse mortality (NRM) after allo-HSCT. Currently, the first-line treatment for BOS is FAM ( oral fluticasone, azithromycin and montelukast).

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
