  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Diagnosis of steroid refractory aGVHD defined as no response to methylprednisolone at 2 mg/kg for 1 week or disease progression after 72 hours of methylprednisolone at this dose. Potential subject will have had no decrease in any GVHD organ staging as follows:
  • Skin rash, if present, does not decrease by one stage. This is based on the percent of the body involved with rash, plus presence of bullae and desquamation.
  • Gut GVHD, if present, does not decrease by one stage. This is based on volume of diarrhea, pain, and ileus.
  • Upper gastrointestinal GVHD, if present, does not resolve.
  • Liver GVHD, if present, does not decrease by one stage. This is based on total bilirubin level.
  • Prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using bone marrow, peripheral blood or umbilical cord cells. Recipients of standard as well as nonmyeloablative transplants are eligible.

  • No previous immune suppressive therapy given for treatment of acute GVHD except for corticosteroids.
  • Absolute neutrophil count greater than 0.5x106/L.
  • Estimated creatinine clearance greater than 30 mL/minute.

About this study

The purpose of this study is to see whether serious graft versus host disease which is not well controlled with steroid treatment can be controlled with therapy with both daclizumab and infliximab. We hypothesize that a combination of daclizumab and infliximab will more effectively treat graft versus host disease than therapy with a single drug. The study also looks at whether chronic graft versus host disease develops, and survival at 6 and 9 months post-treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing daclizumab, infliximab in people with Graft vs Host Disease, run by University of Iowa at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete or partial response of GVHD to treatment according to standard staging/grading scale (time frame: 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Feb 2017.
