Compares treatment options for Chronic Graft-versus-host-disease

Official title A Study of Axatilimab at 3 Different Doses in Participants With Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease (cGVHD)

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04710576

What this study is testing

What is Axatilimab?

Axatilimab is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for chronic graft-versus-host-disease.

Also referred to as Niktimvo, SNDX-6352.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This is a Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of axatilimab at 3 different dose levels in participants with recurrent or refractory active chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) who have received at least 2 prior lines of systemic therapy.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • Time commitment: about 2 years
  • Which group you join is decided by chance.
