Ruxolitinib in treatment-naive or corticosteroid-refractory paediatric patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease (REACH5): interim analysis of a single-arm, multicentre, phase 2 study

Abstract

Chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a debilitating, and sometimes life threatening, complication of allogeneic haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). We aimed to investigate the activity, pharmacokinetics, and safety of ruxolitinib added to corticosteroids in paediatric patients (ie, <18 years) with moderate-to-severe chronic GVHD.
