Summary

While hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is an effective therapy, graft versus host disease (GVHD) is the most significant complication after HSCT. Corticosteroids (or steroids) have been the mainstay of treatment for chronic GVHD for many decades now. Increasingly, newer immunosuppressive and immunomodulating agents are being studied in adults and children affected by cGVHD. Ruxolitinib is one of these promising newer agents, which has been shown to be effective in the treatment of cGVHD in both children and adults. Currently, ruxolitinib is generally added to a patient's treatment regimen after (or with) a course of high dose steroids.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of upfront single agent ruxolitinib for cGVHD.
