Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug to see if it is better than placebo at treating aGVHD, a serious complication from stem cell transplants.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals over 12 years old and heavier than 40kg who have had a bone marrow transplant and are now facing a severe reaction called acute Graft Versus Host Disease (aGVHD). They should have started steroid treatment within the past 72 hours. People with chronic GVHD, other ongoing treatments for aGVHD besides steroids, or those with certain types of cancer relapse or persistent disease aren't eligible.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing Itolizumab in combination with corticosteroids against a placebo plus corticosteroids to see which is better as an initial treatment for severe forms of aGVHD following bone marrow transplantation.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Itolizumab may cause immune system reactions, infections due to lowered immunity, infusion-related reactions similar to allergic responses, and potential impact on liver function. The exact side effects will be monitored throughout the trial.
