About this trial
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.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Participants must be 2 years of age or older, at the time of signing the informed consent.
Participants who are allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients with active cGVHD requiring systemic immune suppression. Active cGVHD is defined as the presence of signs and symptoms of cGVHD per 2014 NIH Consensus Development Project on Criteria for Clinical trials in cGVHD.
Participants with refractory or recurrent active cGVHD despite at least 2 lines of systemic therapy.
The development of 1 or more new sites of disease while being treated for cGVHD.
Disqualifiers
Has acute GVHD without manifestations of cGVHD.
Any evidence (histologic, cytogenetic, molecular, hematologic, or mixed) of relapse of the underlying cancer or post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease at the time of screening.
History of acute or chronic pancreatitis.
History of myositis.

Treatments tested in this trial
Axatilimab
DrugAxatilimab is a high-affinity antibody targeting the colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF-1R). CSF-1R signaling has been demonstrated in nonclinical studies to be the key regulatory pathway involved in the expansion and infiltration of donor-derived macrophages that mediate the disease processes involved in cGVHD.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Overall Response Rate (ORR) in the First 6 Cycles as Defined by the 2014 NIH Consensus Development Project on Criteria for Clinical Trials in Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease (cGVHD)
The ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with objective response (complete response \[CR\] or partial response \[PR\]). CR was defined as resolution of all manifestations in each organ or site, and PR was defined as improvement in at least 1 organ or site without progression in any other organ or site.
Secondary outcomes
ORR on Study as Defined by the 2014 NIH Consensus Development Project on Criteria for Clinical Trials in cGVHD
Number of Participants With a Clinically Significant Improvement in Normalized Score on the Modified Lee Symptom Scale
Duration of Response
Duration of response is defined as the time from initial partial response or complete response until documented progression of cGVHD, start of new therapy, or death for any reason.
Sustained Response Rate
Sustained response rate is defined as the number of participants with objective response lasting for at least 20 weeks (140 days) from the time of initial response. Responses will be assessed based on the 2014 NIH Consensus Development Project on Clinical Trials in cGVHD.
