Summary

This is a pilot study to gather information about safety and efficacy of using ruxolitinib (RUX) to treat Immune Effector Cell Associated Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis-like Syndrome (IEC-HS) occurring after CAR-T therapy. In addition, correlative studies will be done to 1) estimate the optimal duration of RUX therapy, 2) to identify immunological biomarkers associated with response (3) To evaluate the dynamics of CAR T expansion following RUX treatment.

Oral RUX will be administered twice daily, with dosing determined by the participant's baseline platelet count. Treatment will continue for up to 8 weeks unless significant adverse events occur or the treating physician concludes that the therapy is no longer providing clinical benefit.

The study expects to accrue 16 evaluable patients diagnosed with IEC-HS over 2 years.

Conditions

  • Immune Effector Associated Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis-like Syndrome (IEC-HS)

Interventions

DRUG

Ruxolitinib

In this study, Ruxolitinib will be supplied as 5 mg tablets which will be administered orally twice daily (BID) as an open-label, investigational product. Ruxolitinib dosing based on platelet numbers: * 5 mg twice a day if platelets are under 30,000/µL, * 10 mg twice a day if platelets are more than or equal to 30,000/µL but less than 50,000/µL, or * 15 mg twice a day if platelets are more than or equal to 50,000/µL Patients who respond may continue treatment for at least 8 weeks. Therapy will be discontinued for significant toxicity or evidence of IEC-HS progression. After 8 weeks, the dose may be tapered as clinically appropriate, with continued therapy permitted for up to 6 additional months if clinical benefit persists.
