Lanoracopan to Prevent Acute GVHD Following Haploidentical Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation: A Prospective Multicenter Single-Arm Exploratory Study

November 4, 2026 updated by: The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University

Lanoracopan for Prevention of Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease After Haploidentical Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation: A Prospective, Multicenter, Single-Arm Exploratory Study

This is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, single-arm exploratory study. Thirty adult patients with hematologic malignancies who are scheduled to receive haploidentical peripheral blood stem-cell transplantation with myeloablative conditioning will be enrolled.

All participants will receive standard anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG, total 7.5 mg/kg), standard graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) prophylaxis (calcineurin inhibitor + mycophenolate mofetil + short-course methotrexate), plus lanoracopan 200 mg twice daily from day +1 to day +90 after stem-cell infusion. Lanoracopan is an approved complement alternative-pathway inhibitor being used off-label for GVHD prevention in this trial. Mandatory antibiotic prophylaxis against encapsulated bacterial pathogens will be given.

The primary goal is to evaluate the safety of lanoracopan in this transplant setting, including adverse events / serious adverse events, neutrophil and platelet engraftment, graft-failure rate, and infectious complications. The key secondary objective is to explore the cumulative incidence of grade II-IV acute GVHD at day 100 post-transplant. Additional secondary outcomes include chronic GVHD, TA-TMA, 1-year overall survival, disease-free survival, cumulative incidence of relapse, and non-relapse mortality. Exploratory biomarker assessments will be performed on plasma and serum samples.

Participants will be followed for 1 year after transplantation. No control group is included in this exploratory study.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

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).
