RECRUITING

Ruxolitinib, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (uhCG/EGF), and Dose De-escalated Corticosteroids

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This multi-center center phase I/II study to establish the lowest possible recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of corticosteroids in conjunction with ruxolitinib and uhCG/EGF (a novel combination) for high-risk aGVHD. This is a single arm study designed to determine the lowest dose of corticosteroids required (toxicity endpoint) without impairing GVHD complete response or partial response (CR/PR) at day 28 when given in conjunction with uhCG/EGF and ruxolitinib. After completion of the corticosteroid dose finding, the final dose will be carried forward into a two-stage phase II extension trial to confirm safety and make a preliminary determination of efficacy of this novel drug combination for high-risk aGVHD.
