About this trial
A single-center, Phase 1, open-label, investigator-initiated clinical trial evaluating the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of sarilumab (anti-IL-6R) monotherapy as a rescue in adult patients with belumosudil-refractory chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Age ≥ 18 years
Active cGVHD and currently receiving belumosudil with inadequate response (defined as disease progression at any time or failure to achieve at least a partial response after a minimum of 3 months of belumosudil therapy, and for whom the treating physician believes a new systemic therapy is required).
Persistent cGVHD manifestations and systemic therapy indicated.
Karnofsky Performance Score of ≥ 60.
Disqualifiers
Not on a stable systemic cGVHD treatments for at least 2 weeks prior to screening. (Note: Concomitant corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, sirolimus are allowed. Systemic investigational GVHD treatments are not permitted).
Histological relapse of the underlying cancer or post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease at the time of screening.
Current treatment with ibrutinib or ruxolitinib. Prior treatment is allowed with a washout of at least 1 week prior to randomization.
Pregnant or breastfeeding.

Treatments tested in this trial
Belumosudil
DrugBelumosudil (2-(3-(4-(1H-indazol-5-ylamino) quinazolin-2-yl) phenoxy)-N-isopropylacetamide-methane sulfonic acid salt), formerly also known as KD025, is an orally available Rho-associated protein kinase-2 (ROCK2) selective inhibitor. Belumosudil will be provided as 200 mg tablets.
Sarilumab
DrugSarilumab is an interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor antagonist FDA approved for treatment of: * Adult patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have had an inadequate response or intolerance to one or more disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). * Adult patients with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) who have had an inadequate response to corticosteroids or who cannot tolerate corticosteroid taper. Sarilumab will be provided as single-use 1.14 ml prefilled glass syringes containing 131.6 mg/mL (150 mg), 175 mg/mL (200 mg) of sarilumab
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of sarilumab monotherapy for the treatment of cGVHD after inadequate response to Belumosudil.
Secondary outcomes
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Sarilumab
Maximum observed plasma concentration of sarilumab following administration.
Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Sarilumab
Time required to reach maximum plasma concentration following sarilumab administration.
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) of Sarilumab
Area under the plasma concentration-time curve used to characterize sarilumab exposure.
Incidence of serious infections
To evaluate the incidence of serious infections associated with sarilumab monotherapy as a rescue in subjects with belumosudil refractory cGVHD.
