Therapeutic options for steroid-refractory acute and chronic GVHD: an evolving landscape.
Expert Review of Hematology 2020 May
Introduction : The traditional therapeutic modalities to manage SR-acute GVHD have focused on the inhibition of the alloreactive T-cell response, while in the setting of SR-chronic GVHD the focus has been on a combination of T-cell and B-cell targeting strategies. However, new therapeutic modalities have shown promise. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current treatment landscape of SR-acute and chronic GVHD. Areas covered : A systematic search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and clinicaltrials.gov databases for published articles, abstracts, and clinical trials pertaining to available therapeutic modalities for SR-acute and SR-chronic GVHD was conducted. Also highlighted is a number of ongoing clinical trials in both SR-acute and SR-chronic GVHD with strategies targeting the JAK-1/2 pathway, the Treg:Tcon ratio, the immunomodulation mediated by mesenchymal stem cells, and the gut microbiome, among others. Expert opinion : Ruxolitinib has emerged as the preferred therapeutic modality for SR-acute GVHD, with alpha-1-antitrypsin and extracorporeal photophoresis (ECP) being reasonable alternatives. Ruxolitinib and Ibrutinib are among the preferred options for SR-chronic GVHD, with ECP being a viable alternative particularly if the skin is involved. A number of novel therapeutic modalities, including those enhancing the activity of regulatory T-cells have shown great promise in early phase trials of SR-chronic GVHD.
