Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

This trial compares a liquid (oral suspension) form of the drug belumosudil with the standard tablet in healthy adult men. The goal is to see if the liquid version is absorbed by the body in the same way, which could offer a more convenient option for people with chronic graft-versus-host disease. Participants take both forms at different times, and blood samples are used to measure drug levels.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
belumosudil (also known as Rezurock) given as an oral suspension or tablet
What this could lead to
If the liquid form works as well as the tablet, patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease may have an easier-to-swallow option.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase study in healthy volunteers, not patients, so results may not fully predict how the liquid form performs in people with the disease.
