New hope for lung scarring after transplant: belumosudil trial launches
NCT ID NCT05922761
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This phase 2 trial tests whether the drug belumosudil can help people who develop bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), a type of lung scarring, after a stem cell transplant. The study will enroll 45 participants with new or early-stage BOS. Participants will take belumosudil along with standard treatments like steroids and antibiotics to see if lung function improves or stabilizes.
