New hope for transplant patients with severe chronic GVHD
NCT ID NCT06682169
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new drug, rovadicitinib, for people with moderate to severe chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after a stem cell transplant. Participants must have tried at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if rovadicitinib improves symptoms better than standard care at 24 weeks.
