Summary

Assess the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib compared to Best Available Therapy (BAT) in patients with corticosteroid-refractory acute graft vs. host disease (aGvHD) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Conditions

  • Corticosteroid Refractory Acute Graft vs Host Disease

Interventions

DRUG

Ruxolitinib (RUX)

Ruxolitinib was provided as 5 mg tablets for oral use.

DRUG

Best Available Therapy (BAT)

BAT was based on the investigator's best judgment, taking into account the manufacturer's instructions, labeling, patient's medical condition, and institutional guidelines for any dose adjustment. The BAT in this study was identified by the investigator prior to patient randomization among the following treatments currently used in this setting: anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG), extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP), mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC), low-dose methotrexate (MTX), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), mTOR inhibitors (everolimus or sirolimus), etanercept, or infliximab. No other types or combinations of BAT were permitted.
