Summary
This study tests a drug called axatilimab in 30 Chinese patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) that has come back or not improved after standard treatment. cGVHD is a complication of bone marrow or stem cell transplants where donor cells attack the patient's body. The trial aims to see if axatilimab is safe and can help control the disease.
