Summary

This study tests whether the drug belumosudil can prevent chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), a common complication after stem cell transplants where the donor's immune cells attack the patient's body. About 82 participants will receive either belumosudil or a placebo. The goal is to see if the drug can delay or avoid the need for additional immune-suppressing medications, which often have serious side effects.
