Graft Versus Host Disease clinical trials at University of California Health

13 in progress, 7 open to eligible people

Showing trials for

  • CLINIMACS® for Alpha/Beta T-Cell Depletion in Stem Cell Transplant

    open to eligible people ages up to 30 years

    Patients in need of an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) are at risk of developing graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD). In certain clinical situations, the optimal approach to minimize the risk of GVHD is to perform ex vivo alpha-beta T-cell depletion of the donor cells. However, the CliniMACS® Device is FDA-approved only for a narrow indication. All other uses of ex vivo processed cells must be done under a feasibility study protocol.

  • Axatilimab and Corticosteroids as Initial Treatment for Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease

    open to eligible people ages 12 years and up

    This study will be conducted to compare the efficacy of axatilimab versus placebo in combination with corticosteroids as initial treatment for moderate or severe chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD).

    at UCSD

  • Axatilimab in Combination With Ruxolitinib in Participants With Newly Diagnosed Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease

    open to eligible people ages 12 years and up

    This study will be conducted to determine the preliminary efficacy of axatilimab in combination with ruxolitinib and to assess the contribution of axatilimab to the combination treatment effect in participants with cGVHD.

  • Vimseltinib in Adults With Active Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease (cGVHD)

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The purpose of this study is to determine if vimseltinib is safe, tolerable and works effectively to treat adults with active moderate to severe cGVHD. Participants will be treated with vimseltinib in 28-day treatment cycles for approximately 2 years.

  • Test an Oral Medicine, Belumosudil, in Combination With Corticosteroids in Participants at Least 12 Years of Age With Newly Diagnosed Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease.

    open to eligible people ages 12 years and up

    This is a parallel, Phase 3, two-arm study for the treatment of newly diagnosed moderate or severe chronic GVHD. The study duration for a participant includes up to 4 weeks for screening; a treatment period until clinically meaningful cGVHD progression (defined as progression requiring addition of new systemic treatment for cGVHD), relapse/recurrence of the underlying disease, participant starts new systemic treatment for cGVHD or experiences an unacceptable toxicity, at the request of the participants or the investigators, or until the end of study is reached, whichever comes first; at least 30 days follow-up of adverse events (AEs) after the last dose until resolution or stabilization, if applicable; and long-term follow-up until death or study close-out, whichever comes first.

  • PK, PD, Dosing, and Efficacy of RLS-0071for the Treatment of Hospitalized Patients with Steroid-Refractory Acute Graft-versus-Host Disease

    open to eligible people ages 12 years and up

    This study is a Open Label Prospective Dose-Ranging Escalation and Expansion Trial to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Dosing, and Efficacy of RLS-0071 for the secondary treatment of acute Graft-versus-Host Disease (aGvHD) in hospitalized patients who are steroid-refractory.

  • Biomarker Verification in Pediatric Chronic GvHD: ABLE 2.0 / PTCTC GVH 1901 Study

    open to eligible people ages 0-24

    This study will validate a previously developed pediatric prognostic biomarker algorithm aimed at improving prediction of risk for the later development of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD) in children and young adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. By developing an early risk stratification of patients into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk for future cGvHD development (based upon their biomarker profile, before the onset of cGvHD), pre-emptive therapies aimed at preventing the onset of cGvHD can be developed based upon an individual's biological risk profile. This study will also continue research into diagnostic biomarkers of cGvHD, and begin work into biomarker models that predict clinical response to cGvHD therapies.

  • Axatilimab at 3 Different Doses in Participants With Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease (cGVHD)

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This is a Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of axatilimab at 3 different dose levels in participants with recurrent or refractory active chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) who have received at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy.

    at UCLA

  • Itolizumab in Combination With Corticosteroids for the First-Line Treatment of Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (EQUATOR)

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This is a multi-center study to compare the efficacy and safety of itolizumab versus placebo as first-line therapy for subjects with Grade III-IV aGVHD or Grade II with LGI involvement, in combination with corticosteroids

  • Comparing Cyclophosphamide and Abatacept With Standard of Care Treatment Following Stem Cell Transplantation

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the combination of cyclophosphamide and abatacept versus the treatment used in standard of care will reduce the incidence of moderate and severe chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. GVHD occurs when the cells from your donor (the graft) see your body's cells (the host) as different and attack them.

  • Treatment Protocol for Subjects Continuing to Benefit From Ibrutinib.

    Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only

    Multicenter, open-label, prospective treatment protocol that provides continued access to ibrutinib to subjects who have completed parent ibrutinib studies, are still benefitting from treatment with ibrutinib, and have no access to commercial ibrutinib for their underlying disease within their region.

  • Lactobacillus Plantarum in Preventing Acute Graft Versus Host Disease in Children Undergoing Donor Stem Cell Transplant

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    This randomized phase III trial studies how well Lactobacillus plantarum works in preventing acute graft versus host disease in children undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Lactobacillus plantarum may help prevent the development of gastrointestinal graft versus host disease in children, adolescents, and young adults undergoing donor stem cell transplant.

  • Predictive Biomarkers For Pediatric Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) can be hard to diagnose, difficult to manage and contributes significantly to morbidity and mortality in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients. The research will look into identifying and validating cGVHD biological indicators (=bio-markers) which will be evaluated whether they can predict a future development of the disease. The study hypothesis is that a number of previously reported cGVHD bio-markers, known to be present at the time of cGVHD diagnosis, will also be present at earlier time points, before cGVHD develops. Following validation, the bio-markers will be beneficial for finding those patients who are in higher risk to develop cGVHD. By identifying the higher-risk group, which is more likely to develop cGVHD, a pre-emptive therapy might be applied in order to prevent or reduce the prevalence of the disease.
